Jason Coppel KC has ‘excellent analytical skills, and his advocacy is focused and compelling’; he has a solid track record in advising on a broad range of human rights law matters. Among the juniors, the ‘brilliant’ Christopher Knight is ‘clear, concise and incisive’ – ‘a dream junior’ – he appeared before the Court of Appeal in R (IAB & others) v Secretary of State for the Home Department, a case concerning the scope of public authorities’ duty of candour in judicial review, with particular focus on the government’s practice of redacting the names of junior civil servants in disclosure documents. Bolstering the team at the senior end, Joseph Barrett KC and Amy Rogers KC took silk in March 2024.
