1 Chancery Lane is delighted to announce that Laura Johnson has been appointed Queen’s Counsel in the new Silk appointments announced by the Lord Chancellor today.

She was shortlisted for the Personal Injury Junior of the Year at this year’s Chambers UK Bar Awards and has long been recognised in the legal directories as a leading junior in all of her areas of practice.
The appointment of Queen’s Counsel follows an intensive application and interview process and reflects excellence in advocacy. Laura’s significant achievement is recognised by all at 1 Chancery Lane who offer huge congratulations to Laura on her well-deserved appointment.
