Below, you can learn about some of the legal cases we have supported and how we helped our clients achieve a satisfactory outcome.
Extradition case, June 2022
We secured the discharge of an extradition arrest warrant for €600,000 of fraud.
Malcolm & Co Solicitors LLP represented a single mother with an eleven-year-old daughter, accused of defrauding her ex-partner in Germany of €600000. Laura Herbert of Crucible Chambers argued that to extradite the child’s mother, leaving the child in the care of the mother’s sister (in conditions described by a social worker as ‘overcrowded’ and ‘the least worst option’) would have such a devastating effect on the child that it would be a breach of her right to family life under Article 8 ECHR. The District Judge agreed, finding that extradition was not proportionate in this case, despite the serious allegation.
Sentence reduction, May 2022
Alexandra Monaghan of Crucible Chambers, instructed by Osondu Anodu of Malcolm & Co Solicitors LLP, appeared at the Court of Appeal on behalf of her young client who was previously sentenced to 10 years’ detention in a Young Offenders’ Institution. Alexandra successfully argued that the sentence was manifestly excessive, and her client’s sentence was reduced to seven years.
Customer assault settlement, January 2020
Our client, a regular at his local William Hill betting shop, had approached the counter to cash in his winnings following a bet on a horse race. The employee thought our client was being a nuisance and had no winning ticket, and so refused to serve our client or even look at his tickets. Our client was told to leave, and when he refused, the employee came out of the protected counter and assaulted our client. The client suffered an injury to his chin. William Hill accepted liability, and the client accepted a £6,000 settlement. He thanked Osondu Anodu for giving him the opportunity to talk to him, after he had been turned away by several other companies.
