Peter Jolley completed pupillage in these Chambers in 2015. He began cutting his teeth with daily outings to court, but has since also developed a busy advisory and paperwork practice. He splits his time roughly equally between negligence-based claims – P.I., clinical and professional negligence – on the one hand, and property and contractual work on the other.
This balance of work sees Peter drawing on the experience he gained before the Bar. He began working life as a teacher and then managed commercial bids at one of the world’s largest IT companies. He worked with people from many different walks of life and became known for being approachable, straightforward and sensible, yet firm. He is authorised for Public Access work.
Working for local authorities, supported by his experience of an in-house secondment for a London Borough, Peter has considerable experience of succession cases, tenancy fraud and anti-social behaviour. He appears at possession hearings, applications for warrants and allocation hearings and is familiar with the variety of issues which can arise.
He regularly advises on matters of disrepair including leaks, black mould and defective plaster. He advises on Environmental Protection Act prosecutions and remedies such as injunctions. He appears at the FTT (Property Chamber), recently for instance in a selective licensing dispute.
Peter also works for tenants since this provides broad and contrasting experience of how the courts deal with housing cases. He is also a member of SHLA.
