R-v-G (2018) magistrates court

W&C defended client of good character with mental health issues in a domestic stalking and harassment case. This case involved a carefully thought out and realistic case strategy which would have either resulted in a conviction, a penalty at the least severe end of the sentencing range or a review of the prosecution’s case. Following a psychiatric report prepared by Forensic Consultant Psychiatrist – we successfully argued for a review with the result the prosecution offered no evidence. Solicitor-Advocate: Mr Tahir Ali (in house W&C).
