In recent years the firm has added to its reputation as one of the leaders in serious fraud defence work by building up a reputation in defending some very high profile footballers and sports related cases including acting for 3 of the Leeds United Footballers at Hull Crown Court, all being acquitted; the Chelsea Footballer John Terry, also acquitted; and National Hunt Jockey Jamie Osborne.
As in the crime and serious fraud department all members of the Sports Department are committed to obtaining the best result for the client.
