Chambers is delighted to announce that the Queen has appointed Frances Orchover to be a District Judge on the advice of the Lord Chancellor, the Right Honourable Robert Buckland QC MP and the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales, the Right Honourable The Lord Burnett of Maldon.
Frances’ appointment is effective from 18th January 2021 and she will be deployed to the South Eastern Circuit.
Joint Heads of Chambers Nkumbe Ekaney QC and Andrew Norton QC warmly congratulate Frances, knowing that she will be a great addition to the bench but that she will be missed at 1GC.
