He was nominated as Chamber’s Public and Human Rights Junior of the Year in 2017. The current edition of the Legal 500 describes him as “clearly one of the most talented public lawyers of his generation of rising silks” and Chambers UK says that “when he’s your opposition, your heart sinks because he is so good”. Tim’s practice covers the full range of public law work, from commercial and regulatory matters, planning and the environment, through constitutional and EU law, local government and healthcare, to civil liberties and human rights, immigration, and social welfare. He is equally experienced acting for and against public bodies, and for commercial interests and individuals.
