Background

Jonathan joined Byrne and Partners in July 2010, having qualified as a solicitor at the criminal department of Bindmans LLP, a leading London criminal defence firm.

His experience has involved cases at all levels, from the magistrates courts through to the Criminal Cases Review Commission and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).
