After playing for the England national rugby union team against both Scotland and Wales he threw himself into his work as a barrister, and built up a successful practice. In 1919, he applied to become a King's Counsel, and was accepted. He became a Bencher of Lincoln's Inn in 1922. In 1924 he contested Isle of Thanet as a Liberal candidate. He was sworn in as JP for Kent in 1927.[2]
In February 1929 was knighted and made a judge of the Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice.[3] A well-respected and hard working judge as well as the senior puisne Chancery judge, Luxmoore was promoted to the Court of Appeal in October 1938 on the creation of a third division of the Court of Appeal, and made a privy councillor.
Although not normally delivering the leading judgment, his secondary judgments and dissenting judgments proved valuable, and dissenting judgments were several times upheld by the House of Lords.[3]
In 1943, he was made Treasurer of Lincoln's Inn, but in March was taken ill suffering from overwork. He returned to the Bench, but suffered a heart attack on 25 September 1944 and died.[3]
