Our Story
Many members practice in more than one area, giving our barristers an advantage when there is an overlap in such cases involving domestic violence, controlling and coercive behaviour, family finances, children and young people.
Several of our members sit part-time as judges in both criminal and family courts as well as tribunals. We have some members who are also trained in Alternative Dispute Resolution and are trained as mediators and arbitrators.
As a growing set of chambers, we invest continuously in recruiting new members of the Bar. We continue to recruit pupils on a yearly basis, offering a common law pupillage. This allows our pupils to be exposed to more than one area of law.
Chambers is committed to ensuring all our pupils are trained to the highest standards before they start “on their feet”. Pupils are supported as they progress through their career at the Bar. Chambers runs a mentoring scheme for junior members. This involves a junior member being paired with more senior members of chambers, who meet with their mentee on at least four occasions in a year to offer advice, support and career guidance.
Feedback and Complaints
We value all feedback and always strive to provide a high level of service. Please tell us if there is a problem so that we can try to resolve the situation promptly.
We encourage you to raise issues informally first, but if you wish to make a formal complaint, please follow our complaints procedure. A complaint must be made to Chambers before you can go to the Legal Ombudsman. Our procedure includes details about how to complain to the Legal Ombudsman and the timescales for doing so. A link to the decision data on the Legal Ombudsman’s website can be found here.
