Michael McKeown
Criminal Legal Advisor
Michael has spent his whole career working in criminal law, having dealt with criminal matters since 2003. Originally starting in the post room of a busy practice in Liverpool, Michael has established himself as one of the leading caseworkers in the city and beyond. Having an adept eye for detail, his meticulous preparation will often be a deciding factor in a case being dropped or a client being acquitted. Michael deals with all manner of cases but specialises in both serious fraud and drug trafficking matters, whether county lines drug supply, Encrochat drug matters or importation. Key to Michael’s success is consideration of cell site analysis, telephone material and the instruction of leading experts from around the country. His consideration of this kind evidence has resulted in numerous cases being discontinued from the police station stage, court stage or acquittals after trial. Having dealt with heavyweight cases since his early 20’s at other leading practices in Liverpool, he has gained significant experience across the criminal law spectrum whilst advising when funded both privately and via legal aid. Since joining MSB in early 2021, he has assisted the crime department in moving from strength to strength, being the only tier 1 crime department as recognised by the Legal 500 in Merseyside.

Very caring and compassionate service
Having been looking for support for those suffering from false accusations and not really finding any, I located this firm through the National Autistic Society. I have Aspergers syndrome now known as high functioning autism and needed some comfort and someone to listen to my really traumatic experience.
Michael McKeown gave me an online zoom meeting and after having chatted with him, lead me to feel more reassured and supported. It's a tough and scary world for me, especially with me catastrophizing, something those of us with autism tend to do. He explained that they would be understanding of my autism and indeed Michael always helped me out with questions, something other firms refused to do and didn't take seriously.
I ended up with a No further action from the police, and I feel with Michaels expert professional support things turned out better than ever.
With empathy and care which is a rare thing now days Michael supported me so much and I can't thank him enough. I'll definitely be signposting to him and Msb Solicitors in the future so that others can get such a wonderful legal service.
