The Isle of Man Law Society is delighted to announce that the Isle of Man Judge of Appeal, Geoffrey Tattersall QC, is to give the 2014 Caroline Weatherhill Memorial Lecture. A leading barrister in England and Wales, His Honour is an expert in personal injury and clinical negligence. In addition, he practices in the field of ecclesiastical law and holds the offices of Chancellor of the Dioceses of Manchester and Carlisle; it is from these areas of his professional life that he will draw inspiration for his lecture.
While the lecture is organised by the Isle of Man Law Society, it is again generously sponsored by Conister Bank and advocates’ practices Appleby (Isle of Man) LLC and Cains.
The event will take place on Thursday October 16th at 6pm at the Manx Museum, to be preceded by a reception from 5pm.
Members of the public are welcome to attend. Admission is free but only upon reservation and places are limited. Bookings must be made by no later than October 1st. To reserve a place contact Jacky Lloyd, jl@iomlawsociety.co.im.
The annual lecture was established in 2007 in memory of Caroline Weatherill, an advocate with Dickinson Cruickshank (now Appleby) who tragically died at an early age in 2006, leaving husband Lawrence, a practising advocate, and four children.
