39 Essex Chambers

In recent years, the principal focus of Greg Treverton-Jones QC’s practice has been regulatory and disciplinary issues concerning solicitors and other professionals. He is co-author (with Andrew Hopper QC) of The Solicitors’ Handbook, the 6th edition, of which will be published during 2014. He has been in many of the leading cases involving solicitors, e.g. Sritharan v The Law Society [2005] 1 WLR 2708 and Sheikh v The Law Society [2006] EWCA 1577 (interventions); Bultitude v The Law Society [2004] EWCA Civ 1853 (dishonesty); and numerous statutory appeals, e.g. Tinkler [2012] EWHC 3645 (Admin), Andersons and others [2013] EWHC 4021 (Admin). He advises and represents solicitors in respect of all of the most pressing issues of the day. He also represents other legal professionals (barristers and legal executives) and non-legal professionals (surveyors; teachers; architects) and some sports tribunal work. He also has extensive experience of Public Inquiries (North Wales Child Abuse: Southall rail crash and Paddington rail crash); corruption; and costs (particularly wasted costs applications).
