Jason Coppel KC > Chambers of James Goudie KC and Daniel Stilitz KC > London, England > Barrister Profile

‘A very solid and highly reputable set for administrative law‘, 11KBW‘s team is equally strong in handling complex, high-profile human rights cases, with members appearing before the European Court of Human Rights; Jason Coppel KC counts human rights work as a key pillar of his practice. Joanne Clement KC is ‘a go-to counsel for complex and high-value public law disputes‘ with ‘superb knowledge of human rights‘. At the junior end of chambers, the ‘industrious‘ Christopher Knight represented the Advocate General for Scotland before the Supreme Court in Reference by the Lord Advocate of Devolution Issues under the Scotland Act 1998, involving a devolution reference under Schedule 6 of the Act as to whether the Scottish Parliament had the legislative competence to make provision for a second referendum for independence. Stephen Kosmin  is appearing in SSWP v AT, a case concerning whether EU nationals with pre-settled status in the UK are entitled to welfare benefits due to the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. Clive Sheldon KC, as was, was appointed a High Court Judge in February 2024.

11KBW is ‘justly recognised for its expertise in public procurement.’ Jason Coppel KC is ‘exceptional in his field‘ and is well known for representing claimants and contracting authorities in prominent procurement mandates. Recent work includes Joseph Barrett KC appearing before the High Court in high-profile damages claims arising from the Gambling Commission’s procurement and award of the licence to run the Fourth National Lottery Licence to Allwyn. The claims were brought by the IGT Group, a subcontractor of the previous incumbent operator, Camelot, on the grounds of alleged breach of duty by the Commission during the competition process; however the High Court dismissed the claims on the grounds that the IGT Group, as non-bidders in the competition, were unable to pursue claims under the CCR 2016.
