Jeremy Shulman, in his speech said Mr Smith “prepares his cases with a degree of thoroughness to be admired. He is a consummate and skilful cross-examiner. His closing speeches would charm the birds in from the trees. At the same time, he is charming and great company to be with. For any young Barrister starting his or her legal career, he is the perfect role model”.
