Smith; "whom most would gladly hail as the outstanding criminal lawyer of our time."

Early life and education

Smith was educated at St Mary's Grammar School in Darlington. Brian Hogan, with whom he authored Smith and Hogan's Criminal Law, attended the same school. Smith won a scholarship to attend the University of Oxford to read history, but chose not to take it up, instead leaving school to join his father's engineering business.
