He has an engineering degree and is a computer specialist as well as a barrister. From 1977 until 2000 he was in continuous practice at the English Bar specialising in cases involving computers which originally involved him in software copyright disputes and in dealing with disputes when computer systems did not work properly. However he quickly also became involved in criminal computing matters and successfully defended many young people in a variety of cases. In 1979 he drafted a Bill for introduction in the House of Commons to give express copyright protection for computer software. This failed to attract sufficient UK Parliamentary support. Six years later the House passed similar retroactive legislation.</FONT></div> <bR> <div> As an specialist barrister (with attitude) until he left the practising Bar he was frequently in the English Courts arguing computer related matters.
