Our Assessors
The Honourable Ms Justice Obi
We are delighted to now be able to announce that Margaret Obi has been appointed by His Majesty the King to become a High Court Judge.
Margaret will be known as The Honourable Ms Justice Obi and will commence her new role on 3rd October 2025 with the King’s Bench Division.
We are extremely proud of Margaret’s achievement, though it comes with a tinge of sadness as she will now have to leave ILA. Margaret has been part of our team for over 10 years.
Our best wishes go to Margaret and her family from all of us at ILA on this fantastic news.
