Stephen Jourdan KC
An astonishing work ethic and excellent in court.'
With ‘a very great depth in excellent juniors and silks’, Falcon Chambers is able to provide clients with barristers of the appropriate experience level for any agricultural issue, including in its areas of increased instruction: proprietary estoppel cases and partnership agreement disputes. A notable proprietary estoppel case, in which Stephen Jourdan KC and Caroline Shea KC appeared on opposing sides, is Spencer v Spencer, where the High Court provided clarity on the offsetting of non-financial detriment by financial benefit. Edward Peters KC continued to act in the major, long-running case of Procter v Procter, a partnership and tenancy dispute over a large parcel of agricultural land, as it returned to the Court of Appeal for a second time. Jonathan Karas KC is particularly sought after for his advisory work around common land, mineral rights and planning permission. In Chipp-Marshall v Coombes, a land ownership dispute between family members raising questions of estoppel and contract, Emily Windsor acted for the claimant, seeking to clarify the law of estoppel following Guest v Guest.
