Massive congratulations to Deans Court Chambers (@DeansCourt_Chs) & Gatehouse Chambers (@Gatehouse_Law)🎉
Both Chambers have taken on an impressive amount of pro bono work & continue to inspire their members to take on more
If you’re acting pro bono - do remember to seek a pro bono costs order in favour of @Access2JusticeF under s194 of the Legal Services Act 2007. Well done @LottieJohn1 !
Secured a £50,000 costs order for the Access to Justice Foundation today for work done for @WeAreAdvocate. A satisfying conclusion to a very long running saga.

At the end of the Committal Service, The King placed The Queen's Company Colour of the Grenadier Guards on the Coffin.
At the same time, The Lord Chamberlain "broke" his Wand of Office and placed it on the Coffin to signify the end of Service.
@DanNeidle @michaelbdarcy However as the charge appears to be personal rather than against the Embassy, I’m not sure you could enforce against state property anyway (and indeed you’d probably have to sue the individual diplomat). Suing the US ambassador might not be something TfL is keen to push…

#GodSaveTheKing
We join millions of people around the world in mourning the death of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.
Her Majesty was our longest reigning monarch and will be remembered for a remarkable lifetime of service. Our thoughts are with the Royal Family at this time.
