Success for Kirsty Day, instructed by Nichola Coleman at Blackfords LLP

Success for Kirsty Day, instructed by Nichola Coleman at Blackfords LLP, for a client charged with ABH and criminal damage in a domestic context who was acquitted following a 6-day trial.
 
The client and complainant had significant neurological and mental health difficulties, requiring the use of intermediaries, multiple breaks every hour and cross examination reduced to writing in advance.
 
Through Kirsty’s calm and considered approach in her client-handling skills and cross examination of the witnesses, she was able to demonstrate that it was the client who was the victim, ultimately achieving unanimous acquittals on all matters.
