It is with great sadness that the members of Essex Court Chambers share the news that His Honour Judge Anthony Diamond QC passed away on Saturday 5 March 2022 at home after a short illness, aged 92. Mourned and sadly missed by Jo his devoted wife, their daughter Emma and grandchildren, Emily and Olivia, daughters of Lucy and son-in-law Billy Crothers, and by many friends and colleagues around the world. As a barrister Anthony was a founding member of the chambers at Four Essex Court (which became Essex Court Chambers) before later becoming a judge and international arbitrator. He was widely admired within the international community of commerce and shipping practitioners; also a noted connoisseur of Art and Music. A memorial is being arranged.
A full tribute will be published in due course.
