Rojin Tasman

Rojin has always had the desire to help those in need, naturally morphing from being the student voice representative to qualifying as a Lawyer. She cares about justice, her client’s needs and making a change for the greater good.

Rojin has significant experience with clients who have learning difficulties, mental health conditions and/or are classed by law as “dangerous”. Dealing with both private and publicly funded clients, Rojin builds a respectable rapport with clients from all walks of life, including defending youths, adults, experts, and high-profile clients with press coverage.

Upon completing her Bachelor of Law, in which she achieved an Honours, Rojin started working at a Legal 100 firm. She started her work in criminal defence in 2016 at a multinational law firm.

In 2019, Rojin completed her accreditation to become a police station representative. During that year she also completed her Master of Laws, alongside her training contract. Following admission in August 2021 she completed the Criminal Litigation Accreditation and has been certified by the Law Society as a recognised practitioner in Criminal Litigation.

Rojin has experience working in Claims Against Public Authorities, dealing with complaints and claims, and handling inquests. The claims were to establish and hold public authorities to account for misconduct when they abuse their powers, act unlawfully or fail to comply with their professional obligations.

Rojin has dealt with a wealth of criminal cases of all different types and thus has developed a skilled understanding of the law, system and procedure.

In 2021, Rojin qualified as a Solicitor. She is now part of the Britton and Time team, specialising in private criminal litigation.

Due to Rojin’s reputation and extensive knowledge of criminal law, she is often sought out by the media for her expert opinion.

2016

Rojin defended the accused in the high-profile murder at the immigration centre in Hillingdon, which attracted a lot of media coverage. The case covered the murder of a 64-year-old man who was murdered in his cell at the Colnbrook Immigration Detention Centre. Rojin carried out research and involved a range of experts to mitigate her clients’ sentences.

Her client had taken ‘spice’ before the murder and experts agreed that this caused her client to be psychotic at the time of the assault. Health experts confirmed that her client had a disordered personality and angry episodes. The client pleaded guilty to Manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility and although the judge classed the client as dangerous, did not impose a life sentence. Although the client was considered dangerous, Rojin used her objectivity and skills to build a good rapport with him.

2017

In 2017, Rojin worked on another case with high media interest, this time involving the robbery and GBH of a 92-year-old woman in broad daylight. It was uncovered that her client was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and should have remained at a care facility.

Rojin worked on various fraud cases, including a successful acquittal of fraud by false representation case, and a defrauding of £10k. She also helped another client, facing charges of £85k worth of fraud, receive a suspended sentence.

Several weapon and drug-related cases were worked on, including conspiracy to possess and supply class A drugs, possession of a knife, and possession of a noxious gas device. All cases were acquitted.

In 2019, Rojin continued to act successfully for her clients, achieving acquittals and reduced sentences. In one case her client held counts of dangerous driving, ABH, damaging property and possession of a weapon. Following powerful submissions, the client received a suspended sentence, rather than the starting point of 3 years imprisonment.

One client, an expert psychiatrist, who was accused of voyeurism, had his case discontinued as a result of Rojin’s representations.

Rojin’s client was charged with obstructing a police officer carrying out a drug search. The case was discontinued on the grounds of discriminatory practice by the police further to her representations.

Rojin worked on a potential claim against the Home Office and/or the CPS. In 2010 her client was convicted for entering the UK illegally and served a 5-month sentence. The client has since been informed that he should not have been convicted of this offence as he entered the country as an asylum seeker. In March 2020 his conviction was quashed by the Court of Appeal.

An inquest was carried out by Rojin based on a healthcare negligence case. A patient was receiving care at the hospital intensive care unit. The hospital records show evidence that the patient was given an injection of adrenaline, rather than the intended antibiotics, which led to them passing away from cardiac arrest.

A client instructed Rojin to help file a claim for compensation against police authority. The client was pressing charges for assault, misfeasance, trespass to goods, and false imprisonment.

2022

Rojin has had many cases where the Prosecution has offered no evidence. One of which a client was charged with the possession of a weapon and using abusive language to cause fear. Another no-evidence case in 2022 included a client being charged with assault, theft, and criminal damage.

Rojin, alongside her instructed barrister for the case, represented a client who had been charged with three counts of theft, two counts of attempted theft, two counts of fraud by false representation and a conspiracy to commit fraud. The value of his crimes was in the millions of pounds. Successful mitigation achieved the client a sentence far below the guidelines.

In another case taking place at the magistrates court with a bench of 2, Rojin mitigated for her client who had been charged with possession of a bladed article, stalking, and criminal damage.
