Dan Taylor

Practice Areas

Dan is instructed to prosecute and defend in criminal cases at the highest level, across England and Wales. He has been cited in legal directories as a barrister who has “tenacity“, will “go the extra mile” and is “hardworking, intelligent, with excellent judgment“.

Recent instructions include high-profile allegations of murder/manslaughter, serious violence, serious sexual offences, large-scale and multi-defendant drug conspiracies. Many of the cases he is involved in feature young and/or vulnerable witnesses and defendants. He is particularly adept at cases, which involve significant quantities of technical/electronic evidence.

In addition to his defence practice, Dan is a CPS Grade 3 prosecutor and on the 'Rape and Serious Sexual Offences' ("RASSO") list. He is also qualified to accept instructions from members of the public, in appropriate cases, under the Direct Access provisions.
