We are delighted that Robert Sharp and Benedict Flinn join us as tenants after completing pupillage with us. They accept instructions in all our practice areas.
During the first 6 non-practising months of pupillage:
- Robert focused on public, Court of Protection and family law
- Benedict focused on family, property, housing, homelessness and trusts law.
Both have trained in various areas of law during their second six.
