About the Firm

Henry Milner himself established this firm over 25 years ago. Since its inception it has specialised solely in criminal defence work.

We deal with all types of criminal offences including fraud and ‘white collar crime’, providing a close personal service, and ensuring that each client’s case is presented in a clear and concise way. The Firm is a member of the Serious Fraud Panel.

Henry Milner & Company has never operated on a large scale “factory basis” – and never will. When dealing with this firm you will find you are treated as an individual and not merely as a name or number on a file. Our office is definitely not a criminal law “conveyor belt”.

Due to our vast experience in serious and complex cases, we pride ourselves in being able to see “the wood from the trees”, when considering and assessing those points which are likely to matter in any court hearing.

Over the years we have built up a formidable network of connections with specialist criminal barristers’ chambers, and invariably instruct criminal counsel at the top of their profession; whether they be Queen’s Counsel or Junior Counsel. We never instruct Counsel whom we have not personally seen appear in Court.

The whole emphasis of this firm is on proper preparation, a personal and sympathetic service, and instructing the best specialist Counsel.

Our aim is that clients dealing with us will find that they receive a down to earth approach, lacking pomposity, from a firm that prides itself in its professionalism and attention to detail.

Over the years our firm has always appeared in Chambers Law Directory as one of the top criminal practices in London, and Henry Milner himself is cited in both the Chambers Directory and the Legal 500 Directory as a ‘leader in the field’.

The 2004 Chambers Law Directory entry reads as follows: -

“The firm is best known for its record of success in ‘heavy-duty traditional crime’. Highly respected Henry Milner is at the helm, as well-known figure in the market who impresses competitors with his ‘wily and effective representation’.
