Parklane Plowden expand Family Team with KC

Parklane Plowden’s Family Team are delighted to welcome Martin Kingerley KC as a door tenant.

Martin was called to the Bar in 1999, and took silk in 2020. He was then appointed a Deputy High Court Judge in 2023.

An experienced family law practitioner, Martin specialises in the law relating to children, undertaking work in the most serious and complex public law cases relating to allegations of non-accidental injury and death, serious sexual harm, factitious/induced illness and honour-based abuse.

Martin is highly ranked in both the leading legal directories, with Chambers and Partners describing him as a barrister who “knows all there is to know about children's law” and who is “quite excellent in terms of his advocacy skills.”

“We’re delighted that Martin has joined as a door tenant, bringing a wealth of family law experience. His specialist knowledge of the law relating to children will provide a further boost to our already preeminent position in this field.” Stephen Render, Senior Practice Director.

For further information on the group’s services and expertise, please contact Stephen Render, Senior Practice Director to the Family, Chancery & Commercial Teams on 0113 228 5000.
