Thanks Dominic – excellent article.
Dominic Carman is a formidable, personable campaigner, a whirlwind of energy and passion.
Dominic, Thank you very much for your really interesting presentation at the WSG conference. It provided a superb macro and micro view of what has taken place over decades for independent law firms in Europe.
Dominic has produced a riveting biography; it is a truly excellent book.
Dominic, I have to thank you again. Your keynote speech was one of the highlights of our meeting and very inspiring. Thank you so much for your time and effort.
Many thanks for the quick turnaround Dominic – a fantastic job.
Dominic, Thank you for your excellent piece. I am fascinated by what you have to say.
Dominic, You wrote a great piece….thank you for the best contribution to the programme.
Dominic is remarkably well-informed.
Dominic, A very good article. Well done for making a dry subject interesting!
Dominic, I recommended you highly. The work you did on our awards submissions and partner essentials was very strong!
Dominic Carman is one of the best legal journalists around. He has an extensive understanding of the international commercial legal market – both law firms and the Bar – and a strong contact base across some of the largest law firms in the world. His interviewing skills mean he is able to extract insightful quotes that make his writing both informative and engaging. His writing is always clear and concise but he is also able to look beyond the facts to add the colour and human interest aspects.
Dominic is supremely courteous, and speaks in beautifully modulated sentences.
Dominic’s analysis is excellent.
Dominic, I liked your piece very much – it was very good, and an excellent read.
Many thanks, Dominic. I am very pleased. A long article and entirely faithful to our conversation. Much appreciated. Richard
Many thanks for the interview: your article is an excellent read.
I have worked with Dominic on a number of thought leadership projects. He is well connected and has an impressive insight into the key issues impacting law firms and in-house lawyers. His instinct with regards to what will grab the attention of the media, clients and potential clients has been invaluable.
Dominic, Thanks for your excellent article on this complex and very hot topic!
‘Dominic presented a very well researched, amusing and hard-hitting analysis of the way the “offshore” world and private wealth management is perceived and reported on in the UK. The depth, honesty and insight of his presentation were educational and enjoyable. This, coupled with his overall marshalling and summarising of the Legal Week Offshore Investment Forum, made it a pleasure to both be a presenter and participant.’ – re: Offshore Investment Forum: Funds in Flux, London – Dominic chaired the event.

Thanks @CarmanDominic for another great offshore report.
Nick Dennis @nickdennis
@CarmanDominic – Your book is a fascinating insight into independent school leadership.
Bruce Jones @MrBaJones
@CarmanDominic I thought your book about your late father was absolutely superb.
Pamela DeNeuve @pdeneuve
Great article by @CarmanDominic points out conflicts between politics and the law.
FLOvate Technologies @FLOvateWorkflow
Poll of 2,000 lawyers reveals law firms are waking up to power of technology. Great article by @CarmanDominic
The English version of our website is all your making! Thanks again for your superb support.
Dominic, Congratulations on finalising your analysis and articles. I find them extremely informative and helpful.
Dominic Carman has written probably the best opinion or article I’ve read about the importance of an independent judiciary.
It’s honest biography…and it is to Dominic’s credit that he is prepared to lay bare the price his father paid for his years in the limelight.
Superbly written by Dominic. Valid points well made.
Great speaking to you Dominic! You certainly are the most well-informed journalist I’ve ever spoken to.
Thank you so much! It really means a lot seeing this amazing piece from you – I just tweeted it out.
@MichaelLCrick
And if you want to know a lot more about Jeremy Thorpe’s extraordinary QC George Carman, I strongly recommend the warts-and-all biography by his son Dominic Carman. It’s one of the best biographies I’ve ever read
Dominic, Thank you for your hard work in pulling the event together yesterday. The feedback was very positive. I think the ‘fireside chat’ went down particularly well and all of the panels were highly relevant to all who attended. Everyone I spoke to said that they’d enjoyed the day. re: Legal Business Commercial Litigation Summit
Dominic is talented, diligent and versatile. He has generated significant amounts of original content for high-profile internal projects. Dominic has proved his ability to grasp quickly the issues affecting sectors as diverse as private equity and low-carbon power, and countries including Brazil and Turkey. He has delivered work to a very high standard and to tight deadlines, and has proved an excellent interviewer.
A very big thank you for the delivery of an excellent speech, Dominic. It is very rare for people to deliver such perfection straight off the bat!
Dominic has an excellent contact base and knowledge of commercial law firms and the Bar.
I have read Dominic Carman’s Heads Up with real pleasure. It provides a generous and thought-provoking insight into the different approaches and shared values of headmasters today, as well as some fascinating history.
Dominic Carman’s Heads Up is the best account of school leadership I’ve ever come across. I was fascinated by this well-rounded, punchy and realistic account of what our lives are like, doing the best job in the world. This is an inspirational and frank account of independent headship: anyone aspiring to be a head should read it, all current heads should read it, and all our colleagues should too.
This is a fascinating and unique book, often punchy, at times outrageous, and always difficult to put down. Somehow, Dominic Carman has spirited out of a set of leading heads views and opinions which they probably would never acknowledge in public, as well as the occasional traditional view. The approaches are in many cases entirely contradictory, yet the effects on schools are clearly very comparable. No head – or governor – should be without this book; and for many parents it will be an eye-opening and extraordinary read.
Indisputably, Dominic’s searing, often affectionate and probably self-destructive memoir challenges the integrity of those remaining silent.
Dominic Carman’s excellent use of original legal papers provides valuable insight
A fascinating biography
Dominic Carman has written a brilliant biography. I chose it as one of my favourite books.
It is always worth dipping into the biographies of great advocates. The best examples are Memoirs of a Radical Lawyer by Michael Mansfield, QC and No Ordinary Man: A Life of George Carman by Dominic Carman
Dominic Carman’s life of his father is cool and clear-eyed. Dominic has served him well. This is a painfully honest and compelling biography of, indeed, no ordinary man.
