Proud of our Past Members
Many of our past members left Chambers to become members of the judiciary, many were pupil masters to our current members, who benefitted enormously from their expertise when they were at the Bar. Those members include their Honours Judge Behrens, Woolman, Rudland, Lewis, Jack and Hickey, as well as retired Judges Peter Charlesworth and Trevor Kent-Jones.
