If the courtroom was a stage, Jonathan Temm QC was the star of the show. The great legal mind never liked to back down in an argument, but he lost one of his few battles on Wednesday when he died from a brain tumour surrounded by his family.
The 58-year-old has left a legacy among the legal fraternity who are mourning the loss of one of the country s greatest lawyers.
Temm QC was more than just a brilliant performer in the courtroom. His true talent lay in his ability to simply listen, give his time and make people feel like they have been heard.
