Rose Glanville

Practice Overview

Rose joined Chambers in 2023 after successfully completing her common law pupillage under the guidance of our Head of Chambers Catrin John (family), Christian Howells (civil/public), and Peter Donnison (criminal). She brings a wealth of knowledge and a fresh perspective to her practice as demonstrated by her diverse portfolio of junior briefs.

Rose’s strong academic record underpins her legal practice. She obtained a first class BSc in Politics and Sociology from the University of Bristol and was recognised with a major scholarship from The Honourable Society of Gray’s Inn to qualify at the Bar. Prior to tenancy, Rose gained international commercial experience working for a tech SaaS in Paris, France. Rose’s bilingualism and active membership of the European Circuit makes her well-positioned to take instructions on cross-border Articled and Regulatory matters.

Civil and Public Law

As a member of the Attorney General’s Civil Panel: Junior Junior Counsel, Rose is actively instructed in judicial review proceedings. Rose further acts for both trusts and the bereaved in inquests, frequently pro bono. As a pupil she contributed extensively to both the Infected Blood and COVID-19 inquiries.

Rose accepts instructions up to the fast track on allocation through to trial and is frequently instructed in contract, banking, and finance matters. Her meticulous attention to detail has been instrumental in advisory and review work as a junior in high-value probate and PI claims.

Crime

Rose is a dedicated criminal practitioner and has developed a thriving practice since joining, instructed as both defence counsel and as a CPS Level 2 prosecutor. Her caseload involves serious offences including drug production and supply through to violent crime and POCA matters. Rose is recently instructed as a disclosure junior on a complex rape that involves LA records across the lifetime of two care-leavers, where her expertise of the Family and Public law realm is invaluable.

Rose is not afraid of procedural challenge and frequently advances nuanced arguments on abuse and appellate authorities. Rose’s client engagement skill also allows her to uncover critical details others might miss, providing strategic advice that that resonates deeply with clients and rigorously advances their interests

Family Law

Rose retains instructions in private client work and has managed complex matters including relocation, Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DOLS), and Independent Social Workers (ISWs). Rose has a proven record of securing Non-Molestation, Occupation, and Prohibited Steps orders for clients, often dealing with cases involving serious domestic violence.
