After twenty years of experience defending and prosecuting serious crime, Chris now practises exclusively in the regulatory sphere.

In professional discipline, Chris works primarily for the defence and is instructed by all the major medical and dental insurers to represent doctors and dentists before the MPTS and GDC. He is regularly instructed to represent the interests of doctors at inquests. However, he is also instructed to present cases for the GOsC and has in the past been instructed by GOC, GPhC and RCVS. He has appeared for the NMC in the Divisional Court.

Chris also represents corporate and individual defendants in criminal regulatory cases brought by the HSE, EA and local authorities and at inquests. He was instructed with Jonathan Laidlaw KC to represent the crowd management and security company at the Manchester Arena Inquiry.

Chris also has a substantial advisory practice with a focus on gambling and licensing matters. He is frequently asked to advise at the early stages of criminal regulatory proceedings and on issues such as professional privilege.
