  During a period of five days, I spent the majority of my time shadowing a number of different barristers as they appeared in court. I was able to witness a variety of case-types, ranging from a 5 minute strike out application to a full trial for a breach of an interim injunction. These cases largely dealt with social housing issues, such as s.204 appeals, but I was also able to observe work in the Immigration Court. I was fortunate to spend two afternoons conducting research for the Head of Chambers for a case he was conducting at that time Show less
