29/11/2017

We are delighted to be listed again in the latest edition of The Legal 500.

Chambers and its members are recommended in eight areas: Civil liberties and human rights (including actions against the police), Clinical Negligence, Consumer, Education, Personal Injury, Professional discipline and regulatory law (including police law), Professional Negligence and Property Litigation.

Describing Chambers, The Legal 500 quotes “1 Chancery Lane contains ‘numerous high-calibre individuals’, who are ‘all extremely knowledgeable and work as a team with the solicitor and client’. It is ‘an excellent set for clinical negligence, personal injury and regulatory matters’, and also handles professional negligence disputes. ‘Nothing is too much trouble’ for the ‘outstanding’ clerks’ room; it is run ‘impeccably’ by the ‘inimitable’ Clark Chessis, who is ‘one of the finest senior clerks in the country’; ‘always friendly, helpful and reliable, he makes dealing with the set a pleasure’. First junior David Barrow and second junior Melissa Neild are key parts of the ‘unbeatable team’; they provide ‘an extremely responsive and efficient service’, and ‘know all their barristers’ strengths’.”
