About this ebook
For over forty years, criminal defence solicitor Henry Milner has been the go-to lawyer for some of Britain's most notorious and high-profile criminals – from Kenneth Noye and the Brink's-Mat robbers to gangster Freddie Foreman, John 'Goldfinger' Palmer and the gang who carried out the Millennium Dome raid. These and many others who reached serious misunderstandings with the law knew that once they were nicked, there was only one man to call: a genial cigar-smoking solicitor with an office tucked away in a leafy corner of central London, a man known to the Sunday Times as 'The Mr Big of Criminal Briefs'. In this remarkable memoir, Milner gives a real insight into the life of a top London criminal lawyer and into the mind of his clients, along the way introducing us to some of the most colourful characters ever to appear on either side of the dock. By turns shocking and hilarious, No Lawyers in Heaven gives a wry commentary on the frailty of human nature across the spectrum of the criminal justice system in a punchy narrative that could grace the pages of a bestselling crime novel.
