Profile

Tim Kevan was a barrister for ten years before retiring to live by the sea, go surfing and write a novel. He therefore now lives in Braunton in North Devon, goes surfing at the merest hint of swell and has a book deal with Bloomsbury to publish his first novel at the start of 2009. He is also the author of Why Lawyers Should Surf (with Dr Michelle Tempest) and numerous articles and is a co-founder of CPD Webinars and Law Brief Publishing. During his time as a barrister in London he wrote ten law books and was described by Chambers UK 2008 as "incredibly talented" with "an enquiring mind" and an "unsurpassed knowledge of the law". He has also had regular appearances on TV and radio including Richard & Judy, The Jeremy Vine Show, GMTV and most major news programmes commenting on topical issues. Brought up in Minehead in Somerset, he was educated at Cambridge University and was a scholar of the Middle Temple.
