David Dabbs, 1962–2025

I have very fond memories of David Dabbs as a teacher of an advocacy when I was a pupil - he brought precision and intensity as well as great fun. I recall his performance as a seasoned police officer gently and amusingly dissecting my inapt cross examination. Some years later he taught me to be an advocacy tutor and on occasion I was lucky enough to teach alongside him. His dedication to Lincoln's Inn advocacy tuition - not just in terms of time, but in passion and drive - was and I suspect will remain unmatched.
