Anna Morris sworn in as King’s Counsel

27 March 2023

Anna Morris King's Counsel

We are proud to announce that, following her appointment in December, Anna Morris was today sworn in as King’s Counsel.

Anna said:

‘I am delighted to be celebrating my appointment today with my family, friends and colleagues at Garden Court North and Garden Court Chambers in London.

‘For me, the ceremony today represents the next step in my commitment to advocating for bereaved families and vulnerable individuals at every level.

‘But, being a leader at the Bar means more than just advocating for our clients. I am proud of being able to mentor and support our brilliant junior members of chambers, who despite entering a challenging profession, have careers that continue to grow from strength to strength.’

Anna was joined by our Head of Chambers, Annmarie Nightingale, as well as GCN juniors Ciara Bartlam, Rosalind Burgin, Peter Cruickshank, Mira Hammad, Lily Lewis, and Christian Weaver.

Everyone at Garden Court North Chambers would like to warmly congratulate Anna on this landmark achievement.
