Position

With over 27 years’ experience at the Criminal Bar, Andrew is a highly regarded advocate. A financial crime and fraud specialist, he has considerable experience in cases of corporate, financial and commercial crime, and is predominantly instructed on behalf of the defence. Andrew is instructed by leading law firms and is keen to provide advice from the earliest stages of cases.

He is consistently recognised as a leading white-collar defence junior in both Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500 guide since 2013. He is currently ranked Band 2 for Financial Crime in the Chambers and Partners 2021 guide. He is also ranked by Legal 500 2021 as a Band 1 Leading Junior in the practice area Crime.

Andrew has specialised in financial crime since moving to Exchange Chambers in 2008. Since then he has appeared either as a leading junior or as a led junior in some of the largest fraud trials involving pensions, mortgages and banks.

In 2018 Andrew, led by John Jones QC also from Exchange Chambers, secured a six-figure Section 19 costs award against the CPS after a very substantial investment fraud was dropped prior to trial.

Andrew has experience of defending in trials funded by D&O liability insurance.
