Hull's Wilberforce Chambers is ‘a strong set of criminal barristers’. Michele Stuart-Lofthouse is ‘a measured and polished presence in court’ and ‘always ahead of the game in terms of her trial strategy’, with an excellent track record in handling cases of murder, serious violence, serious sexual offences, and large-scale drugs conspiracies. Rachel Scott has ‘a flair for jury speeches’, while Charlotte Baines is ‘a courageous and combative cross-examiner’ and ‘a real tour-de-force in her field’. In recent instructions for the set, Baines and Dale Brook appeared in a trial concerning a contract killing in Hull.
