TCC Marshalling Scheme

Each year TECBAR offers junior barristers who are interested in developing a practice in technology or construction law to spend three days with a judge in the High Court. The scheme is open to TECBAR members and to the current or future pupils of a TECBAR member.

Marshalling is currently offered in the Technology and Construction Court in London, but we hope soon to be able to expand the scheme to the other District Registries of the Technology and Construction Court.

The marshalling experience will include reading papers, hearing submissions and evidence from the bench and discussing ongoing cases. Subject to timetabling, each marshal may well spend time with more than one TCC Judge during their assigned days.

The scheme will run in the second and third week of each term (starting in Hilary Term 2027). The Judge in Charge of the London TCC will consider the diary in the first week of each term and identify appropriate days in the relevant window for marshals to attend the Court. Once those dates are identified, everyone who has registered an interest will be emailed with the chosen dates. The available spaces will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
