Stephen is a leading licensing and healthcare regulation defence barrister. Having progressed through the Bar in the usual way he founded the revolutionary direct access portal group of London Legal Barristers in 2009. It was revolutionary and utilised the best of traditional chambers whilst harnessing online tools and services. It was the first organisation working through online portals and websites. Specialising exclusively in direct access instructions in the areas of licensing and medical regulation he transformed that into Kings View Chambers in 2014. He remains Joint Head of Chambers. His new work involves defence barrister websites for taxi and licensing as well as specialist representation in all medical fields.
“I am very proud to have been selected on to the 2020 LexisNexis Legal Awards judging panel. It is a privilege to have been asked to take part in such a prestigious event promoting excellence and innovation across the legal sector.
“I have personally endeavoured to always deliver excellence and innovation through out my career as a lawyer so the ethos of the awards is something that has personal meaning to me. I look forward to seeing the nominations and I wish all the prospective nominees the best of luck.” – Stephen McCaffrey
