What the Team is Known For
Pump Court Chambers is a well-regarded set noted for its expert handling of a wide range of criminal cases. An interviewee comments that the sets has "barristers of all abilities which allows us to identify those best suited to certain individuals or cases." Members are regularly called upon to act for both the prosecution and defence in cases involving serious crimes such as murder, drugs-related matters and serious sexual offences. Additional areas of strength for the team include fraud and cases relating to serious violence. Members of the set were recently successful in defending David McLean, the former mayor of Winchester who was charged with the attempted murder of his 92-year-old mother.
Tony George is the senior criminal clerk.
