Band 3
Provided by Philip McCormack
Family - Public Children Law
Philip's practice is almost totally public law children and has become more and more focused on representing the children themselves in long running complex final hearings. These proceedings tend to have parallel criminal proceedings or a background where there have been previous criminal proceedings. Increasingly also many of his cases concern complex medical evidence and substantial amounts of written material to be analysed and assessed.
Selected Cases:
• Z, Re (Fact Finding, Fatal Head Injury, Domestic Abuse) [2021] EWFC 92
• LC (A Child - Placement Order) [2020] EWCA Civ 787
• B-T (A Child: Threshold Conditions) [2020] EWCA Civ 697
