4PB Celebrate 75 Years of Women Silks at the Bar
4PB is delighted to support, mark and celebrate the 75th anniversary of the first women silks being appointed to the Bar. As a leading set of family law barristers’ chambers, 4PB is proud that of its current 25 silks, 13 are women, each of whom are extraordinary professionals and one of whom is our current joint head of chambers and vice chair of the Bar Council. We all recognise the debt owed to the women barrister pioneers who made this possible so that now our profession better attracts the most talented regardless of gender.
