We recognise that clients demand specialist knowledge from barristers who are technically astute, excellent in court and aware of wider commercial issues and personable.

We are delighted to announce that Head of our Business & Property Group, James Morgan QC, has been appointed as a Deputy High Court Judge.
Our congratulations go to James who is now authorised to act as a Judge of the High Court in the Chancery Division on the Midlands Circuit for a four year term until August 2023.
James will of course continue in full time practice at St Philips whilst undertaking his judicial responsibilities.
