Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Blake and Redden (Firm) : The law firm of Blake and Redden, London England, specialized in acting on behalf of Canadian cases heard before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. Edward Blake, former leader of the Liberal party in Canada and Irish Nationalist member of parliament in Westminster was the founder of the firm. Blake and Redden was a firm of solicitors, but as Edward Blake was a barrister in Ontario, he could appear before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, but not before any other British Court. The firm was still in existence in London, under the name of Knapp and Fishers in 1977.
