2026 Silks

KCs at the very top of their field, with a long-established record of market-defining cases, and widespread endorsement from clients and peers. All silks appointed in the last two rounds are listed further below.

William Moffett KC

William is a highly effective commercial litigation barrister, particularly where the dispute has a Chancery, property, partnership, fiduciary, trust, or private wealth dimension. His strengths are strategic judgment, clear written analysis, advocacy, and commercial realism. He is very good at cutting through a large body of material and identifying the points that will matter in court or in settlement discussions. He is also persuasive without being theatrical: his style is measured, authoritative, and practical.

Leading Juniors

Leading juniors are those with significant experience of key cases, strong market recognition from both peers and clients, and are seen as future candidates for silk.

Gary Lidington

Gary's combination of technical expertise, commercial awareness, and effective advocacy has made him a trusted choice of counsel, particularly in disputes requiring clear strategic direction and robust representation.

Simon Mills

Simon Mills continues to be an incredible barrister. He knows his area of law and is excellent at getting the right results.

Stuart Benzie

Stuart is practical and straight to the point in both correspondence and documents and has the ability to think of issues before they arise.

Zachary Kell

Zachary Kell is way beyond his year of call in terms of his technical ability and advocacy skills. He's a silk in the making. In court, he's polished, persuasive, and really fights his client's corner. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Tina Kyriakides

Dov Ohrenstein

A fearless advocate in court.

Adam Deacock

Swift replies and good attention to detail.

Alexander Kingston-Splatt

Alex is a very shrewd lawyer and is always able to anticipate what is coming around the corner; he is also a great team player and a pleasure to work with.

Henry Day

Henry's oral advocacy and written advice are exceptional. He is capable of reviewing huge amounts of complex and technical information and digesting it in a way that can be shared with the client clearly and concisely. At mediation, he was also clear and persuasive when talking to the client, mediator, and opponent.

Kate Rogers

Kate is an excellent mid-ranking junior who has command beyond her years. Incredibly hard-working, bright, and a robust advocate, she is also very client-friendly and the all-round package.

Matthew Tonnard

Matthew is good with clients and conveys complex matters concisely to them.
