Terra Firma Chambers is delighted to announce that Fergus Colquhoun has joined the stable having called to the Bar today.

Prior to calling, Fergus trained with a leading Edinburgh private client firm, gaining extensive experience in most aspects of urban and rural property law, trust law, and taxation. After qualifying, he worked for a year in-house on a highland estate overseeing the voluntary registration of title, and providing legal advice pertaining to all areas of the business.

Fergus has a particular interest in property law (including landlord and tenant), taxation, succession, and trust law. Whilst devilling, he gained experience in a variety of practice areas, including crime (and the proceeds of crime), fatal accident inquiries, planning, and tribunal work.  He also accepts instructions in peerage and heraldic law.

Terra Firma’s Alasdair Burnet, was one of Fergus’ devil masters: “I am confident that Fergus will be an excellent addition to the stable. He has a wide range of legal knowledge including a keen interest in all aspects of the finer points of Scottish property and trust law.”

Fergus said: "I am thrilled to be joining Terra Firma Chambers as I call to the Bar. With the help of Emma and her team, I look forward to building a practice which lives up to the stable's reputation for excellence".

Everyone at TFC would like to take this opportunity to welcome Fergus to the stable and wish him a long and successful career at the Bar.
