Fred Mackintosh QC

Mr Mackintosh is one of Scotland’s leading extradition counsel and now extends his practice to London and requested persons arrested in England and Wales. The same legislative scheme applies to extradition cases in both Scotland and south of the border.

Terra Firma has 11 dual-qualified members, including seven silks.

Mr Mackintosh said: “I am delighted to join the team at Great James Street Chambers. Extradition is a necessarily small field in Scotland and I look forward to the opportunity to represent requested persons in a wider range of case the courts of England and Wales.”

Zoe McCauley, senior clerk at Great James Street Chambers said: “We are delighted to welcome Fred to Great James Street Chambers and, alongside Terra Firma, we look forward to utilising Fred’s extensive knowledge and experience in some of our more complex extradition matters in London and internationally.”
