Individual Editorial
Christopher Newton is head of the national crime and regulatory team. He has a broad caseload which includes prosecutions for corporate manslaughter, severe injuries and breaches of the HSWA. He regularly provides counsel to organisations facing investigations by the HSE, the police and the EHO.
Strengths
He has great understanding of our sector's needs.
He managed something for us that could have had serious implications, but his advice, clarity of thought, ability to work with a large team and ability to delivery to senior management was great.
Chris is who you want in your corner. He listens, understands and cuts through the legal complexities of the most serious incidents with a calmness and expertise which is second to none.
