Gatehouse Chambers is delighted to celebrate the appointment of Michael Wheater KC who has been sworn in as King's Counsel today by the Lord Chancellor at a ceremony at Westminster Hall.
Michael is a sought-after barrister, adjudicator, mediator and arbitrator, specialising in construction and insurance litigation with a particular focus on domestic and international construction and engineering disputes, professional negligence claims and property damage.
He has been recommended as a leading construction, insurance and professional negligence barrister for many years in Chambers UK, Chambers Global and The Legal 500.
Amanda Illing, CEO commented: "Michael's very well-deserved appointment comes after many years of hard work and professional achievement. Michael has been an integral part of chambers life and progress since undertaking his pupillage here, and it has been a privilege to watch his career grow and flourish. We are hugely indebted to the clients with whom Michael has worked alongside, and the assessors who supported his application. Michael's appointment also signals yet another significant boost to chambers' leading Construction and Insurance Teams, and the service we are able to offer to our clients. This is another hugely proud moment for our chambers."
Many congratulations to Michael.
