Justin Ablott
What I do
I am a Higher Courts Advocate working in crime. I am responsible for the Derby Crown Court operation. I therefore have responsibility for the preparation of the more serious criminal cases dealt with by Smith Partnership and also the presentation of those cases in Court as an advocate.
What I bring to the team
I keep a calm head and good judgement in difficult situations.
Key interests
Being married with two sons keeps me occupied for most of the time but with a keen interest in sport when time allows.
