“A renowned barrister best known for acting in cases in the murky world of organised crime”, Riel prosecutes and defends. “A wise and

experienced advocate respected by all, she handles the worst-case scenarios in court with a calm and measured approach…. She is an

outstanding jury advocate.” Nominated for Criminal Silk of 2019, recognised in the Lawyer Hot 100 list in 2020, Riel’s background lies in highprofile

cases: homicide, serious organised crime, and sexual offences, with an emphasis on long running complex investigations. Known for her

work in Modern Slavery, she has been described as “simply outstanding - the lead in Human Trafficking Prosecutions in England and Wales”.

“Measured, calm and efficient”, and “one of the most incisive advocates used by the CPS, one of her many strengths is her ability to grasp the key

issues in complex and sensitive cases and to provide advice of the highest quality. Her witness-handling skills are impressive; She can be wholly

relied upon to treat vulnerable witnesses with care, empathy and professionalism to ensure that their best evidence is given”.
