About Christopher Caine

Christopher Caine was born in Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) and graduated at the University of Rhodesia, receiving his Law Degree (with Honors) in 1973. His was one of the last classes in pre-Independence Rhodesia to be admitted to the Bar under the external University of London (England) Law Degree.

Following graduation he worked for some years as a prosecutor (the equivalent of a Deputy District Attorney in the USA), gaining a reputation for being tough and aggressive, but fair-minded. He was then “head-hunted” and joined the firm of Scanlen & Holderness in the capital city, Salisbury (now Harare). This law firm, one of the largest and most respected firms in the country, represented Amnesty International and Christian Aid.

Chris and his family emigrated to England in 1976, where he joined the firm of Lee, Bolton & Lee (established in 1855) in London and qualified as a solicitor (attorney) in London. In 1980 he was made a partner of the firm; he was one of the youngest solicitors to be made partner in the history of Lee, Bolton & Lee.

He has successfully represented and looked after many clients accused of DUI and various criminal offenses, ranging from misdemeanors to extremely serious felonies. His clients, many of whom have needed his representation more than once, have been well served by his wealth of experience. Most of Chris’s clients come to him by word-of-mouth referrals from previous or existing clients grateful for his services.
