Professional status & independence

A personal professional profile

This is Zaf Shah’s personal biography and professional interests website. It is not a CPS website, law firm website or channel for obtaining legal representation. Mention of employment, earlier roles, media contributions and skills provides biographical context only.

Crown Prosecution Service

Zaf Shah’s current role is Senior Crown Prosecutor. Content here is personal and is not an authorised CPS statement. Nothing on this website offers influence over, privileged access to or information about prosecution decisions. For case enquiries, complaints, victim services or official media enquiries, use official CPS channels.

Contact and legal work

The contact invitation is limited to professional networking and general knowledge exchange. This site does not invite or accept private legal instructions. Emailing does not create a solicitor and client relationship. Do not send case material, privileged communications, criminal allegation details or other sensitive information.

Organisations, references and imagery

Organisation names and links identify earlier experience, current employment or public sources. They do not imply endorsement, sponsorship or partnership. The BBC entry describes historical broadcast contributions, not employment as BBC legal counsel. Court and library photographs are illustrative and do not show Zaf Shah or a case in which he acted.

Responsible AI

The AI section describes personal learning interests. It does not claim a CPS specialist appointment, internal programme, operational capability or approval to use AI in casework.
