Our proud history

As the oldest and most established Barristers’ chambers in Northampton, we trace our origins to the 1970s, when barristers from Birmingham and London set up an independent practice. Since then, Chambers has proudly maintained its distinct identity.

Conveniently located in the heart of Northampton’s town centre, we are just a short walk from the Northampton Combined Court Centre and the Magistrates’ Court. Since moving to our home at 10 Spencer Parade in 2011, we have continued to grow, always prioritising our clients’ needs.

With barristers committed to going the extra mile, we combine a long and proud history with the vision and adaptability needed to thrive in a constantly evolving legal landscape.

While maintaining our status as a common law set, we place particular emphasis on family law and remain dedicated to both publicly and privately funded work. Our practice spans the Midland and South Eastern Circuits, including courts in central London.

Practice Areas

We value a personal approach, with our team well-equipped to discuss past, current, or potential cases with instructing solicitors. We provide honest advice on the most suitable counsel for each case, tailoring our recommendations to meet the specific needs of every individual matter.

Public Law

Family public law, also known as child protection law, is a branch of law that focuses on the well-being and safety of children. It involves government agencies, primarily social services, and the courts in cases where a child’s welfare is at risk

Family public law, or child protection law, is designed to protect children. It addresses situations where a child’s well-being and safety are at risk and involves government agencies like social services and the courts. We can help you understand your rights and responsibilities within this legal framework.

Private Law

Private family law is one of the principal areas of our services, that focuses on disputes and legal matters between family members. Unlike public family law, which involves government agencies like social services, private family law deals with issues like divorce, financial settlements, and arrangements for children after the separation of parents, including where the children live and how much time they spend with the other parent.

Optional which emphasises client focus:

Our private family law services help individuals navigate the complexities of family disputes. We handle matters ranging from divorce and financial settlements to arrangements for children, including where they live and how they spend time with each parent.
