Stuart has successfully maintained a broad common law practice since being called to the Bar 20 years ago. His practice is essentially a mix of criminal, civil and family law.

In criminal law, Stuart is specifically instructed in complex and serious cases by both defence and prosecution. He has been led on many occasions and is regularly briefed in cases of murder, rape and other serious sexual offences, large drugs and money laundering conspiracies and fraud. He is Grade 4 Prosecutor on the Midland Circuit.

Stuart’s civil practice focuses primarily on personal injury including fatal and industial accidents, tetraplega cases, disease litigation as well as contractual law.  

In family law, Stuart appears in private and public law children cases, particularly where complex medical issues arise. He is instructed on behalf of parents and local authorities. His family practice also encompasses matrimonial finance and divorce law.
