Interview with Jonathan Goldsmith

Monday 11 January 2010 by Mike Semple Piggot

Mike Semple Piggot, aka Charon QC talks to Jonathan Goldsmith about the role of the CCBE, the Akzo Nobel case on in-house counsel, the new Justice Commissioner and the opportunities for lawyers in Europe.

Jonathan Goldsmith is the Secretary General of the Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe (CCBE), which represents over 700,000 European lawyers through its member bars and law societies. The CCBE deals with a wide range of EU and global issues, such as anti-money-laundering legislation, an EU-wide Code of Conduct, competition matters affecting the legal profession, and human rights. He is an English solicitor.

Mike Semple Piggot is editor of Insite Law Magazine and the author of the slightly irreverent Charon QC blog.
