‘Alex is simply extraordinary. He has a tremendous intellect and quickly grasps the details of complex matters and the nuances behind the evidence. He is an authoritative advocate who is quick on his feet in court.’
St John’s Chambers is the ‘go-to set for Chancery matters’ with ’excellent strength in depth in this field, and a very approachable team’. The team regularly assist clients with a wide range of contentious and non-contentious business and property, chancery, and tax mandates. Alex Troup KC is ‘a first-rate chancery barrister with an impressive breadth of knowledge’ and represented the defendant before the High Court in Winter v. Winter, a case concerning a claim against a deceased farmer’s assets and estate. ’Reasonable and measured barrister’ John Dickinson appeared in Bernier v Davenport and Davenport, a claim brought under the 1975 Inheritance Act to determine the domicile of a man who died with estate in two jurisdictions. Natasha Dzameh is highly regarded for her excellent track record in advising on estate administration and commercial Chancery disputes, and garners praise for having a ‘great eye for detail and going over and beyond to give realistic and practical advice’. Oliver Wooding recently acted for the defendant’s father in a proprietary estoppel claim against his son before the High Court in Gatehouse v Gatehouse and is ’strong and confident on his feet’. Adam Boyle is also recommended.
