Family Life

A highly successful barrister and King's Counsel, George Vickery moved from Chancery Lane to a fine new house in Albemarle Street soon after the birth of his son William. He is considering buying a house somewhere in the countryside as the noise and dirt of London cannot be a healthy environment, although he is a little reluctant to do so as it will mean spending a great deal of time apart from his family, whom he loves dearly.
