Practice Christopher Wing was called to the Bar in 1985 and admitted to the Western Circuit in 1987. A specialist in criminal law, he has an enviable reputation as an approachable and skilled advocate gained from his considerable experience in both defending and prosecuting cases at all levels. His reputation as an advocate was borne from his skill in presentation of evidence and argument in court, principally, although in particular he is praised for his examination and cross examination of witnesses, including police officers, experts, children and other vulnerable witnesses.
He is also an experienced and skilled military law specialist regularly conducting Court Martials in all the court centres in the U.K. and overseas, for both the defence and prosecution. He is available to speak to service personnel via phone or internet conference at short notice, and can usually attend any court centre on 24 hours notice if required.
Admitted to the list of defence counsel for the International Criminal Court in October 2007, he regularly attends conferences and training sessions in The Hague in order to keep up to date with the latest developments in international criminal law. He was recently been admitted to the list of lead defence counsel for the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
