Background

About Richard Orme

With over 25 years of work experience, I am a barrister with a passion for justice, a keen eye for detail, and a strong track record of success in challenging and high-profile cases. I specialise in fraud and criminal law, and have represented clients in cases involving money laundering, people trafficking, murder, corporate manslaughter, and more. I currently practice at St Johns Buildings Chambers, one of the largest and most respected sets in the country, where I am part of a dynamic and diverse team of legal professionals. In my current role, I receive instructions from both defence and prosecution, and handle cases of varying complexity and scale. I also undertake coroner's court work, and recently represented the police commander in a case of fatal shooting by police marksmen. I use my skills in legal writing, legal research, and court advocacy to deliver high-quality service to my clients and colleagues. I have also leveraged my knowledge of the Far Eastern culture, which I gained from studying, living, and working in that region, to receive instructions from the Far Eastern community.
