David Caplin

Partner

David joined Farleys in 2025 as partner, carrying a caseload of some of the most serious fraud cases in England and Wales from early enquiry stage to the defence of prosecutions.

He has been identified by clients and fellow professionals over the last ten years as a leading criminal lawyer in his field.  He has been described by Chambers and Partners guide to the legal profession as “a masterful performer in heavyweight cases” and by the Legal 500 clients guide to the UK legal profession as a “fantastic tactician who really cares about his clients”. His varied experience means he is equipped to deal with all aspects of a criminal case from advice and representation in interview to advocacy before the Higher Court. He prides himself on his ability to negotiate effectively always acting with the utmost discretion and sensitivity and firmly believes that for many clients their reputation is as important as their liberty.
