Henrietta Hill QC appointed as a Deputy High Court Judge

Chambers is pleased to announce that Henrietta Hill QC has been appointed a Deputy High Court Judge.

The appointment followed an open competition by the Judicial Appointments Commission. Although the appointment is to all three Divisions of the High Court, it is planned that Susie will hear cases in the Queen’s Bench Division. The role of Deputy High Court Judge is reserved for those who have the experience and expertise to deal with very complex cases which would otherwise be undertaken by High Court Judges.

Henrietta will sit in the High Court along with Kirsty Brimelow QC and Associate Tenant Susie Alegre, who were announced in August, for a minimum of around 30 days a year and will also continue to practice full time from Chambers.
