Abdul Iqbal KC
A silk of star quality. His jury presence is very impressive.'
Park Square Barristers‘ team garners praise for its ’excellent strength in depth‘, and is home to ’very experienced counsel specialising in criminal law‘. In a prominent work highlight, the ’brilliant‘ Richard Wright KC led the ’fearless‘ Gillian Batts KC (who since rose to Silk in 2025) for the prosecution of a man who was convicted of the murder of seven-year-old Nikki Allan in 1992. Kama Melly KC has a solid track record in handling cases involving serious sexual offences; Craig Hassall KC stands out as ’a first-rate cross-examiner‘. In another matter, Catherine Silverton led Holly Clegg for the defence of a woman who was charged with conspiring to supply and possession with intent to supply Class A drugs after 5kg of cocaine was found in her flat; the client received a two-year sentence after being convicted for participating in the criminal activities of an organised crime group. Ellen Wright joined the team in December 2023.
