Deka Chambers is a leading national and international common law set, offering some of the finest advocates and best performing barristers across its practice areas.
Comprising 110 barristers, including 17 market leading Silks, it is one of the biggest common law sets in the country.
Deka Chambers represents the union of two hugely respected leading Sets: 1 Chancery Lane and 9 Gough Chambers.
‘Deka’ is Greek for the number 10 (1 + 9) and reflects the coming together of a wealth of expertise from the formidable roots of the two legacy Sets. The decision to break with convention, with most Sets being named after their location, demonstrates the ambition of Deka Chambers as a forward thinking, inclusive and modern organisation, created to meet the changing needs of the legal market.
