Crispin Aylett KC:

“What a great read and a testament to a stellar career.”

Frances Gibb, former legal editor, The Times:
“Henry Milner’s colourful account of a career over decades as a criminal defence solicitor evokes a bygone era of the criminal justice system. In a highly readable style with plenty of wry self-deprecating humour, Milner gives a compelling insight into a life defending some of the big-league criminal names. A must-read.”

Martin Brunt, Sky News crime correspondent:
“In more than forty years at the top of his game as a criminal defence lawyer, Henry Milner has been on speed dial for many of Britain’s most notorious alleged villains. Sometimes serious, sometimes very funny but never, ever dull, No Lawyers in Heaven offers a sharply observed insight into his most gripping cases, from murder to money heisting, drug trafficking and beyond.”

Duncan Campbell, journalist and author:
“An entertaining and revealing insight into the world of the criminal defence lawyer – and the inside stories behind some of the Old Bailey’s most famous cases.”
