Cornerstone Barristers is a set of barristers who specialise in social housing law, planning, common and commercial law. ==History== Cornerstone Barristers was formed in 1880 by Sir Charles Hall as 2-3 Gray's Inn Square. Sir Graham Eyre QC was the Head of Chambers, before being succeeded by Anthony Scrivener QC in 1992. In 1999, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) decided to cull its panel of prosecuting chambers, resulting in more than 30 barristers moving out of 11 sets. 2-3 Gray's Inn Square lost practice manager Paul Simpson and senior clerk Bill Harris. Gray's Inn Square said they had been asked to be taken off the list prior to the cutbacks. In the early 2000s, Gray's Inn Square grew steadily. From 2001 - 2006 Anthony Porten QC led the firm as its head of chambers. During this time the organization grew its expertise in housing and licensing. Revenues grew from £9.7m to £10.6m from 2004 - 2006 alone. The following year the chambers lost three members, but revenue per barrister and overall revenue continued to grow. In 2006, planning specialist Mark Lowe QC was elected as its new head of chambers in a move to help the firm modernize and grow. Lowe's goals were to streamline the civil set and attract more members.〔 In December, 2011 2-3 Gray's Inn Square was renamed to Cornerstone Barristers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cornerstone Barristers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
