13th Aug 2019 | News


Harcourt Chambers is delighted to announce that Frances Judd QC has been appointed to the High Court bench and will sit in the Family Division.

Frances joined Harcourt in 1984 and has for many years been one of the country’s leading silks specialising in children work, sitting in addition as a Deputy High Court judge. She led Chambers with great distinction for 8 years until she became Chair of the FLBA in 2018. She is held in great affection here and will be sorely missed. We wish her every success in her new appointment.
