Supporting information
Our ‘leading silks’ and ‘leading juniors’ lists are designed to highlight those barristers who are pre-eminent in their given field. Usually, for a barrister to be awarded leading individual status, they will have: A substantial amount of excellent referee feedback A substantial amount of excellent peer feedback Had a prominent role in several leading matters in the current year; and A strong track record over recent years. Please provide full details of any barristers that you wish to nominate as leading silks or juniors. You should not put forward every barrister in the practice; this is unrealistic and counterproductive for the barristers concerned. Each nomination should include five relevant work highlights that demonstrates the profile of the individual in question and which have taken place in the last 12 months. Please summarise each matter and the barrister’s role in it. Please say why this case was important. If the barrister is not able to provide five highlights – for example, because they have been on parental leave – then please explain as much in the ‘Career summary’ section. Please identify clearly any confidential information – whether client names, panel appointments, deal or case values, or other details – by marking that information confidential in red. If you have no information to add to certain fields, please leave them blank. To add an extra row, click anywhere on the matter and hover the mouse over the left hand side of the matter box. A circular box with a plus symbol in it will appear in the bottom left corner of each cell. Click this and it will add a hew row of cells.
