As well as appearing in general crime cases at the magistrates' court Euan is also adept at representing those facing extradition proceedings. He regularly represents extradition clients at Westminster Magistrates' Court. 

Euan also continues to represent individuals at the police station, helping clients make such important decisions at the earliest stage of a criminal investigation.

As an employer, Euan is an individual who supports and encourages his staff and has been the driving force behind the ethos of the firm working hard, representing clients to a high standard, but also for all staff to work in a close knit nurturing environment. Euan without question agreed to Sonn Macmillan Walker being a founding sponsor of Women in Criminal Law and supports those staff involved in the Youth Practitioners Association and DELF.
