We recognise that clients demand specialist knowledge from barristers who are technically astute, excellent in court and aware of wider commercial issues and personable.
Catherine Ravenscroft recently defended David Bishop-Rowe, the former Head Teacher at Sutton School and Specialist College in Dudley, in a fraud case before Recorder Simon Ash KC at Wolverhampton Crown Court.
The case related to payments to Mr Bishop-Rowe which were authorised for private consultancy work which was carried out during school hours but paid to his private business account, rather than going to the school.
Further details regarding the case can be found in the link below:
