Qualified: 1997 Partner: 2004
Graduating from Strathclyde University with his LLB in 1993, and his Diploma in Legal Practice in 1994, Ken served his legal traineeship in a specialist Glasgow court firm. His traineeship included training under the authoritative, late, William J. Stewart. Once qualified, he joined our team at Peacock Johnston as a general civil litigator and criminal solicitor.
Since joining us in 1997, Ken has become a specialist in all aspects of family, employment and criminal law, with an interest in commercial and building disputes, licensing appeals and general litigation. Over the years he has built up a solid reputation and, since being assumed as a partner in 2004, he has acted as the partner responsible for Legal Aid issues, data protection, money laundering and client relations.
The regard in which Ken is held by his peers in the legal profession is underlined by him having just completed a year in office serving as President, and now remaining on the Executive Committee as immediate Past-President of the Glasgow Bar Association. The Glasgow Bar Association, as the largest independent Bar Association in Scotland, is often considered to be the voice of court practitioners in Glasgow and throughout the West of Scotland. Ken has also served, for a number of years, as a tutor for the GBA Professional Competence Course. He is also a member of the Family Law Association.
