My approach to a criminal case connects legal strategy with examination of the evidence. Training in medicine, psychology and criminology informs specific questions about expert reports, witness accounts and the reconstruction of events.

Criminal defence and forensic sciences

Lawyer registered with ICAM, number 140625: legal representation and examination of evidence.
Medical and psychological education applied to the issues raised in the proceedings.
Criminology and forensic science to examine the events under investigation in greater depth.

Legal representation and expert assessment are undertaken as distinct engagements. An independent expert opinion and a clearly explained legal strategy are central to this approach.

How I work

From the case file
to the courtroom.

Examine the allegations

Organise the case file, identify the conduct attributed to each person and prepare for immediate decisions, from questioning to precautionary measures.

Assess the evidence

Connect each piece of evidence with the facts it is said to establish, compare timelines and identify the issues witnesses and experts need to clarify.

Prepare the trial

Develop the defence position, propose relevant evidence and plan questioning and closing submissions around a coherent explanation of the case.

Professional work and publications

The work, inside
and beyond the courtroom.
