Criminal and coronial venues

Criminal trials and inquests in London

Criminal listing in the capital is spread across a number of Crown Court centres rather than one building, and two of them hold roles defined for England and Wales as a whole, not just for London.

Central Criminal Court
The Crown Court centre known as the Old Bailey, EC4M 7EH; the City of London Corporation owns and administers the building.
Southwark Crown Court
Sits at 1 English Grounds, SE1 2HU, with 15 courts; the judiciary describes it as the specialist trial centre for heavy fraud and long and complex cases in England and Wales.
Coroner’s courts
Inquests are not centralised: Greater London is divided among the City of London, Inner North London, Inner South London, Inner West London, East London, North London, South London and West London coroner areas.

Proceedings at these venues draw on forensic psychiatric, psychological or other clinical evidence, the kinds of instruction indexed on the register under criminal defence, fitness to plead and mental health.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Where would a London assessment take place?

Each listing names its consulting locations and assessment types before you make contact: face-to-face appointments are held at the practitioner's own premises, and remote assessment removes the journey altogether where the case suits it. Nothing about the logistics is left to be discovered after instruction.

What if the specialty my case needs has no London listing?

The instruction is still covered. Location results automatically include practitioners who assess remotely, each labelled with where they are actually based - so a London search never ends at an empty page while a remote-capable specialist exists on the register.

Can I shortlist London experts by sub-specialty, expertise or gender?

Yes - the register filters by category, specialty and specific medico-legal expertise as well as location, and every listing displays the practitioner's gender and experience. A London search can start from the precise question in issue and a sensitive-instruction preference at the same time.
