Thomas Robinson to be appointed King’s Counsel

Wilberforce Chambers is delighted to announce that Thomas Robinson is to be appointed King’s Counsel.

Tom, called to the bar in 2003, has a stellar commercial chancery practice with particular emphasis on pensions, insolvency and corporate matters including directors’ duties and shareholder disputes. Tom is consistently recommended by Chambers & Partners and Legal 500 and in this year’s editions he is described as, “a true class act”, “incredibly bright, well-prepared, eloquent, calm, but tenacious and fearless when the need arises”, and “a great man to have in your corner in a crisis”. Tom has appeared before the Court of Appeal as sole counsel and in the Supreme Court as well as the Dubai Court of First Instance and numerous tribunals.

The entirety of Wilberforce Chambers would like to congratulate Tom on this fantastic achievement!

The formal ceremony will take place at Westminster Hall on Monday 24th March 2025.
