We recognise that clients demand specialist knowledge from barristers who are technically astute, excellent in court and aware of wider commercial issues and personable.
St Philips Barristers is delighted to welcome criminal specialist Zafar Ali QC as a Door Tenant. Called to the bar in 1994 and attaining Silk in 2012, Zafar acts exclusively as defence counsel and his experience encompasses a full spectrum of criminal law cases from tax evasion to terrorism.
Speaking on confirmation of his Door Tenancy, Zafar said:
“I came to Chambers because I wanted to continue to expand my Midlands practice utilising my door tenancy in Birmingham with the assistance of Andrew Rourke and the clerks team. Having co-defended with several top-quality silks from St Philips this move was an obvious choice. I am looking forward to working with the criminal team.”
Senior Criminal Clerk Andrew Rourke commented:
“Adding Zafar Ali QC to St Philips’ already stellar set of silks is excellent news. Zafar is a fierce defence advocate regularly instructed in the highest profile and most grave cases in the country including homicide, terrorism and high-value fraud matters. All at St Philips are very excited to welcome him.”
