Always feels quite special to wake up in Keble College for our annual conference #PIBACon2025

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

I have finally caught up and watched the recording of James Byrne's (@DekaChambers) March seminar on Fatal Accident Claims for @PIBarAssoc. It's incredibly useful with lots of examples from case law to demonstrate how these claims work in practice.

A great weekend at Keble on the @PIBarAssoc annual conference. Still can’t believe I didn’t make the 5 minute walk here from @wadhamoxford all those years ago. As ever some fantastic speakers and a great opportunity to catch up with friends and colleagues.

Back home after a wonderful weekend at my first @PIBarAssoc conference

@PIBarAssoc @BagotBriefs Pair of legends!

[Angela Frost @Frostlaw12kbw]

Thoroughly enjoyed the @PIBarAssoc annual conference this weekend. Such a wonderful setting @KebleOxford
Thank you for all your hard work as Chair @BagotBriefs !

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

Rounding off this excellent weekend #PIBACon24 at Keble are new silks Ed Lamb and @SFraserButlin updating us on recent liability and quantum cases.

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

We’ve heard a lot about duty of care this weekend #PIBACon24 and Andrew Warnock KC is now telling us more about what cases are coming up in the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal this year …

[Jasmine Murphy @cruellacivil]

No one minds me knitting while learning at #PIBACon24 - I find it helps focus the mind.

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

Even more favoured than our medical speakers are our judicial speakers. This year’s “view from the bench” is HHJ Melissa Clarke - DCJ for Oxford and Thames Valley #PIBACon24

[Charles Bagot KC @BagotBriefs]

@HuntCarin @PIBarAssoc Thanks so much Carin and completely agree about Emily, who will be a fab and inspiring @PIBarAssoc Chair as it heads towards its 30th anniversary. Carin you’ve been so energetic on multiple projects for the Junior Cttee of PIBA and the Exec Committee. Don’t know how you fit it in

[Charles Bagot KC @BagotBriefs]

@Leila_Benyounes @PIBarAssoc Thanks so much Leila. It’s been great to work with such a hard working and fun team on the Executive Committee.

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

Next up, the #PIBACon24 audience hears from David Tyack KC about the conclusion of the long running secondary victim litigation in Paul, Polmear and Purchase.

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

@mcdermottkc_ @OldParsonageOx @KebleOxford Gerard - we missed you in the #PIBACon24 photo booth and karaoke bar last night!

[PIBA @PIBarAssoc]

@Leila_Benyounes @jamessflee We are impressed!!

[Carin Hunt @HuntCarin]

I will very much miss working with the lovely @BagotBriefs on the @PIBarAssoc exec committee, but I am delighted to welcome Emily Formby KC as PIBA's first female chair.

A huge thank you to Charlie for everything he's done during his tenure 👏
