The Leeds office of the ‘dynamic’ set Exchange Chambers houses a criminal team with ‘strength in depth’. The group has been kept especially busy handling large-scale drugs conspiracies, murder, complex fraud and terrorism cases. The ‘very thoughtful’ Nicholas Johnson KC ‘is able to instill confidence in juries’, and Andrew Haslam KC‘s ’judgement is excellent‘. Among the juniors, Stephen Grattage successfully prosecuted a man for conspiracy to assist unlawful immigration into the UK, as well as separate violence and firearms offences. In a separate matter, Charlotte Noddings acted as junior counsel in a multi-handed murder trial for one of the defendants, who was charged with the murder of an 18-year-old man by way of joint enterprise; the defendant was acquitted of all charges.
