Ian Rogers KC

Ian Rogers KC took silk in 2014 and has appeared in the Supreme Court, Privy Council and CJEU on many occasions.

He sits as a chairman of the panel determining the claims of the group of postmasters who were part of the Alan Bates v Post Office Group Litigation Order, and has acted as an RFU Appellate Judge. He is a member of the Welsh Government’s Public Law Panel of KCs and served on the Attorney General’s A Panel until taking silk.
