It is with great pleasure that we announce both St. John’s Chambers and two of our Silks; Leslie Blohm QC and Kathryn Skellorn QC having been shortlisted for the Legal 500 UK Awards 2018.

St John’s Chambers is up for The Legal 500 UK Regional/Scottish Chambers of the year and our two Silks have both been shortlisted for The Legal 500 UK Regional/Scottish Silk of the year.

Leslie has been a member of chambers since 1984, and is now one of the Western Circuit’s leading commercial and chancery practitioners, both in advisory work and in litigation in all Courts from the most local up to and including the House of Lords and the Supreme Court.

Kathryn took silk in 2014 after twenty years as a specialist Children Act practitioner dealing with complex care work and contentious private law matters. She works across a full spectrum of cases in the Family Court, Higher Courts and the Court of Protection.

Thank you to all of our referees that have made our shortlisting possible.
