The Defence Barrister served Tyrone Dobbs during his trial in March 2013 on charges of ABH against his girlfriend Kirsty Soames. In truth, she had been the abuser of him for many months and had fabricated the allegation against him after she had discovered that his friendship with Fiz Stape, who he had gone to for a shoulder to cry on, had turned into an affair. Once the case resumed, the crown dropped the case, the jury were discharged and Tyrone was free to go.
