David Watkinson of Garden Court Chambers has been one of the most outstanding Barristers fighting for housing rights and especially fighting for Gypsy and Traveller rights over the years.  He is retiring at the end of December 2012.  The Partners from CLP attended his retirement do at Garden Court Chambers.  He has been involved in some of the leading cases involving Gypsy and Traveller and Housing rights.  He will leave a big gap but we wish him all the best in his retirement.
