About Chambers / Staff


Staff

Our staff consists of a team of four Clerks and a Marketing Manager.

Our Clerks have extensive knowledge and experience of courts and tribunals at all levels in both civil and criminal law and they are therefore well placed to assist with listing and procedural queries.

But don't just take our word for it...

"The thing I value most about the service that Chambers provides is the approachability and friendly nature of the clerks" (Solicitor feedback, April 2008)

"I really appreciate the fact that clerks try hard to juggle things around if they can possibly find someone they will do so" (Solicitor feedback, April 2007)

"We are extremely satisfied with the level of service provided by all chambers staff who we deal with. All the team of clerks are excellent and deliver an extremely high standard of approachability and professionalism" (Solicitor feedback, March 2006).

"Clerks are knowedgable of who has what cases, seem to know their instructing solicitors' needs, very friendly, very efficient." (Solicitor feedback, March 2006).
