    “Mark is a real fighter. He has made a seamless transition from an excellent senior barrister to an accomplished KC. He is equally at home with murders and other serious crime, and also serious fraud. He has achieved some unbelievable results; he really does prepare well and is patient and empathetic with clients, whilst retaining a highly professional approach. He is rated extremely highly and instructing solicitors do not hesitate to instruct him in any case, however serious or complex.”

    “I have briefed Mark Rhind on numerous occasions and in particular on a number on complex regulatory matters. These have included defending complex and lengthy prosecutions brought by the Environment Agency amongst others. I also brief Mark in respect of professional discipline matters, particularly medical professionals such as hearings before the NMC. His advocacy style is outstanding and invariably persuasive. Feed-back from clients is always exceptional and as such I have no hesitation in recommending him to our clients.”
