Queen's Counsel: 2008 competition announced!
The Selection Panel for appointing Queen’s Counsel has announced today that it is inviting applications from barristers and solicitors with Higher Courts advocacy rights for appointment as Queen’s Counsel from Thursday 21st February 2008.
From Thursday 21st February 2008, the application form and guidance for applicants will be available on the Selection Panel's website www.qcapplications.org.uk .
The deadline for receipt of applications is 5 pm on Thursday 3rd April 2008. On current expectations the outcome of the applications is likely to be announced in early 2009.
The Selection Panel will be looking for the same skills and attributes as in the last competition. However, the Selection Panel will look both at the preparatory and the resolution (in court or otherwise) aspects of advocacy. The competencies are:
A. Understanding and use of the law
B. Oral and written advocacy
C. Working with others
D. Diversity
E. Integrity
Referees have been renamed assessors to better reflect the role they play in the process. References are therefore to be known as assessments.
To be appointed an applicant must demonstrate the competencies to a standard of excellence. Applicants are required to provide a summary of their practice and a self assessment as to how they meet the competencies and the names of assessors who have recently encountered them at work – judges or arbitrators, fellow practitioners and professional clients or client proxies. The Selection Panel will consider the evidence from the summary of practice, self assessment and assessments and decide on the strength of the available evidence which applicants justify an interview.
