Rufus D'Cruz

Rufus D'Cruz is an experienced junior who defends and prosecutes serious cases covering a wide area of criminal work. His practice covers a broad range of cases from Fraud, Money Laundering, Large-Scale Drugs cases to Sex, Murder and other heavy crime. His practice also extends to health and safety work and representing and advising individuals, companies and corporations in relation to corporate crime. He has been led regularly as well as appeared on his own in serious multi-handed cases. He is now increasingly instructed as a leader.

The extent to which he defends and prosecutes in serious cases has provided him with a more rounded experience and expertise in managing cases with voluminous papers and extensive unused material, analysing and organising complex facts, drafting and presenting complicated legal arguments, and dealing with difficult issues relating to disclosure, PII and sensitive material and Mutual Assistance and Letters of Request. He has acquired considerable experience both prosecuting and defending in handling a variety of witnesses from child witnesses and vulnerable witnesses, to senior police officers and defendants and expert witnesses and professional witnesses.
