"At Byrom Street they make the effort to know you and to understand the kind of service you want from a barrister."

Geoffrey Tattersall KC


6th January 2025

It is with great sadness that Chambers announce the death of former member Geoffrey Tattersall KC. The Leader of the Northern Circuit, Jaime Hamilton KC, has spoken of Geoffrey's immense qualities as a barrister and judge. 

 

But Geoffrey was far more than just an extremely capable legal practitioner.

 

Head of Chambers, Chris Melton KC, says “Geoffrey was a lovely human being. We have lost a wonderful friend and former colleague. He was a formidable opponent. He was an extremely kind man. He was very humorous. He was self-effacing. He was clever and wise. He had time for everyone. Anybody who had the opportunity to work with him will recognise those qualities and many more. He will be greatly missed by all.”

 

The whole of Chambers extends heartfelt condolences to Hazel, Hannah, Mark and Victoria.
