Blake Lapthorn is regularly instructed to act as Privy Council
Agents in appeals before the Judicial Committee of Her Majesty's
Privy Council.
The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council is the court of
final appeal for the UK overseas territories and Crown
dependencies, and for those Commonwealth countries that have
retained the appeal to Her Majesty in Council or, in the case of
Republics, to the Judicial Committee. It also has other domestic
jurisdiction within the United Kingdom, hearing appeals from
medical and veterinary disciplinary bodies and in certain
ecclesiastical cases.
Our Privy Council team acts in civil and criminal appeals,
representing both appellants and respondents. Our clients
include companies, banks, trusts and individuals. We are members of
the Judicial Committee Users' Group.
