Chancery

Traditional chancery includes trusts, probate, real property and tax, while commercial chancery covers a range of finance and business disputes.

Civil law

Civil law involves relations between persons, and between persons and organisations.

Common

Typically, common law chambers are multidisciplinary and are divided into practice groups so members can develop and maintain specialisations.

Crime/fraud

Specialist criminal law chambers offer expertise in all areas, including child abuse, human rights, violent crime, and white collar crime.

Employment

Employment lawyers handle a variety of issues, including unfair dismissal, discrimination, redundancy, equal pay and whistleblowing claims.

Family/matrimonial

Think about all the things that members of a family can fall out about and multiply that – that’s your area.

Immigration

Immigration lawyers deal with all legal matters relating to immigration and nationality.

IP barristers advise on issues such as infringement disputes, issues on validity of registered IP rights, and commercial agreements that deal either exclusively with IP rights or with IP rights in the wider context of larger commercial transactions.

Landlord & tenant/housing

Housing/landlord and tenant law encompasses all aspects of residential and commercial tenancies covering issues like disrepair, human rights and succession.

Personal injury

Personal injury law falls under the law of tort and involves civil claims brought to obtain compensation for injuries.

Professional negligence

Barristers involved in this field deal with claims against professionals such as architects, accountants, solicitors and financial advisers.

Property

Property law (now sometimes labelled as real estate) embraces a wide range of work, including real property, such as contracts for sale, covenants and land registration, trusts over land; and commercial and residential tenancies involving issues as diverse as disrepair, possession claims, succession and assignment.
