Eric Fripp
Eric is a specialist adviser and advocate in public law and human rights cases including a substantial core of asylum, immigration, and nationality work.
Eric has built a substantial practice focusing on the international and domestic law concerned with refugees, nationality, and statelessness, United Kingdom immigration law, domestic human rights law as applicable to immigration and/or refugee cases, and administrative law/judicial review, with his experience extending to an increasing proportion of complex and/or politically sensitive cases in all of those areas.

He is noted for his thoroughness and skill as an advocate in the higher courts and for the breadth of his complementary supporting interests in relevant areas of public international law, legal and political philosophy, and history.
