Leading 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.

David Platt KC

David Platt KC is extremely bright - he is a "proper" silk - he commands the room and one waits to see what his view is. His advice is always helpful and he is able to deal with significant sets of documents in a restricted time frame with (seemingly) little difficulty.

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.

Adam Taylor

Adam is a very astute and measured barrister. He is thoughtful in his approach and is keen to cover all angles and nuances. He is calm and resolute, which engenders confidence in clients both in conference and on his feet. In court, he is firm and assertive without arrogance or aggression; a demeanor that wins over judges and undermines his opposition.
