Individual Editorial
Victoria Wakefield KC represents claimants in a number of high-profile class action claims, as well as defending clients in standalone actions. She has advised on appeals of EC decisions affecting pharmaceutical companies and challenges to new regulations in the sports sector.
Strengths
She has a level of brilliance that goes above and beyond; she can turn her hand to anything. She is a brilliant mind and advocate.
An outstanding brain and tactician able to master the most complex of briefs and clearly pull out the salient strengths and weaknesses. Stellar counsel I would want to have on my side on every matter.
She is more than an up-and-coming star at the Bar now; she's a first-rate competition and EU barrister. She is intellectually very able and thinks through complex points with real quality.
Victoria is, to my mind, one of the best KCs in the competition field. She is incredibly switched on, on top of the detail and a phenomenal advocate. In court, she is a first-class cross-examiner.
