Position
Benn Maguire has a continuing reputation as a formidable advocate. He is currently instructed in the News of the World ‘hacking’ case and recently he has successfully defended a member of the Household Cavalry charged with homicide, a merchant banker acquitted of assault charges, a company director found not guilty of perjury and represented an alleged drug supplier following his successful appeal to the Court of Appeal. He has experience of a broad spectrum of criminal matters, including homicide, grave sexual offences and drugs offences. Whilst he undertakes both prosecution and defence work, he is particularly noted for his very successful defence work, both public and private. He is a favourite with the best criminal law firms and, as a highly respected leading junior, Benn regularly leads in all areas of criminal work, including money-laundering, drugs importation (including one of the largest cases in history), historic child abuse and confiscation matters. His tenacious and tactical approach to his appellate work has secured a number of unexpected reversals of fortune.
