We are frequently called upon as commentators in our fields: in the last 12 months our members have given papers at institutions including the Houses of Parliament, the Home Office, the College of Policing and St George’s, University of London. Our barristers have also been invited to speak at events such as the AvMA and Association of Police Lawyers annual conferences, as well as for numerous client firms.
We offer a rolling programme of seminars and case surgeries as well as providing regular briefing notes and other articles and updates for clients.
The fact that – in an innovative move – we have invested in a dedicated client care team means that we are particularly well placed to discuss and fulfil client requirements on training and numerous other matters. For full details please contact our client care team here.

From selection to cross-examination
We are delighted to invite you to this clinical negligence webinar led by Dr Simon Fox QC and Jamie Mathieson. The session aims to provide practical guidance and advice on instructing experts.
Practical advice for assessments, advocacy and access.
We are delighted to invite you to this Court of Protection webinar which will be hosted by Clarke Willmott and Serjeants’ Inn Chambers.
The session, chaired by Jess Flanagan and Sophia Roper, will draw on the panel’s experience of difficult issues arising from lockdown.
Join Dr Bridget Dolan QC and Rachel Spearing for a discussion about the challenges created by the pandemic. Despite Bridget’s PhD in psychology and her 13 years working with the NHS as a Psychologist before she came to the Bar and Rachel’s experience gained as the co-founder and first Chair of the Bar Wellbeing Initiative, they are clear that there are no simple solutions and that what works for one person may not be relevant to another.
Last week, Serjeants’ Inn barristers Sophia Roper and Nageena Khalique QC acted for two of the parties in the first case to be heard remotely in the Court of Protection.
In a lunchtime webinar introduced by Michael Mylonas QC they share their experience and answer questions.
In light of recent judgments in Sherwood Forest Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust & Anor v H [2020] EWCOP 5, GSTT & SLAM v R [2020] EWCOP 4 and the Vice-President’s Guidance on Serious Medical Treatment [2020] EWCOP 2, we have organised a flash seminar, where we will be joined by Kiran Bhogal of Hill Dickinson to discuss the new practice direction and effects of the judgments.
Our annual police law conference will focus on legal developments and practice as we approach a new decade. This full day event will draw on our police team’s experience in cases which have shaped police law to offer practical and tactical insights.
This years speakers will be John Beggs QC, Dijen Basu QC, Gerard Boyle QC, Jon Holl-Allen QC, George Thomas, Sarah Simcock, Elliot Gold, Edward Pleeth, James Berry, Aaron Rathmell and Cecily White.
Every year Serjeants’ Inn joins forces with Oxford neurosurgeon Richard Stacey to organise this event for both claimant and defendant clinical negligence enthusiasts. We aim for an interesting mix of medical and legal talks and we will once again be offering a “speed dating” session after lunch with a more informal opportunity to ask questions of our speakers.
Chris Johnston QC interviews Simon Fox QC on the Bolam test for breach of duty in clinical negligence in the light of recent case law and asks – is it still the test for breach?
In this evening seminar, which will be chaired by Michael Mylonas QC, our panel will consider the following questions:
What does the Court Order actually mean? And what happens when someone breaches an Order? And what happens in other jurisdictions, where the right to anonymity is less closely guarded? And most critically – have we got the balance right?
