Ian Pennock

Ian Pennock is a barrister at Parklane Plowden Chambers who specialises in Personal Injury, Business and Commercial, Insurance, Family: Property & Finance, Public & Admin Law, Clinical Negligence, Costs & Litigation, Inquests & Fatal Accidents, Professional Negligence, Property, Abuse Claims and Industrial Disease.

Ian left university with not only a 1st Class LLB (Hons) but also with numerous awards and scholarships including an award for the best graduating student in any field of study.

Ian started out at a large London set and subsequently returned North where he has practised since 2001. He has a broad range of experience and regularly appears in the higher courts.

He is described by his lay and professional clients as a 'fierce and tenacious advocate' who is 'passionately committed to his clients' causes' whose 'down to earth', 'client friendly' and 'approachable manner' make him a popular choice with solicitors.

Due to the frequency with which he appears in the High Court and Court of Appeal, Ian has only listed cases officially ‘reported’ in law reports (those which are considered significant by fellow professionals) and space does not permit the recital of the numerous other occasions he has been involved in otherwise high profile matters which have been of National and International T.V. and Newspaper interest.

The number and frequency of such ‘reported’ cases speaks for itself and amply demonstrates why Ian is constantly one of the busiest members of Chambers which, in itself, is a continual vote of confidence by those Solicitors who instruct him and says more about his ability than we can.

LLB (Hons), 1st Class ; Awarded prizes at University by HSBC, Waterstones, Sweet & Maxwell, Cavendish, Jacksons, Hardwicke & Blackstone and Cecil M. Yuill prize for best graduating student in any field; Woolfson Scholarship from Lincoln's Inn.
