What we say about the set's legal practice in Regional Bar
Northern Circuit
Within Crime,
Cobden House Chambers’ Louise Blackwell QC and Martin Callery have heavyweight criminal practices.
Within Overview, Cobden House Chambers (Chambers of Roger Farley QC) is a third tier firm,
The Northern Circuit comprises the largest volume of sets and barristers outside of London. Now that Manchester is home to the GMC and the new Administrative Court, and, combined with the fact that it is a strong Bar, local sets retain more of the complex work than historically was the case. The circuit is hugely receptive to the challenges the modern Bar faces; many sets are waiting on the sideline with a ProcureCo in place, and yet another set, namely Young Street Chambers, has folded. St Johns Buildings, which houses the leading family team, is in the process of merging with Paradise Chambers and India Buildings Chambers to have greater leverage for LSC tendering. Kings Chambers is the leading chancery, commercial and planning set; Lincoln House Chambers is top for crime; Byrom Street Chambers is the go-to set for personal injury and clinical negligence; and 9 St John Street is known for its employment offering. Deans Court Chambers and Exchange Chambers are solid sets with sound reputations. Garden Court North Chambers has notable prison and immigration law practitioners and has seen the recent arrival of three new tenants. St James’s Chambers, Cobden House Chambers and 18 St John Street Chambers, which recently took on several former Young Street Chambers members, are efficient and effective sets. In Liverpool, 7 Harrington Street has an incredible selection of criminal silks; Atlantic Chambers is a well-liked set and has several members who have national credit hire practices; and Liverpool Civil Law is a specialist civil set with several key PI practitioners.
Within Personal injury and clinical negligence,
At Cobden House Chambers, the ‘excellent’ Richard Hartley QC and Marc Willems are highly regarded on circuit. Anthony Mazzag, Michael Jones and David Kenny are also recommended.
Within Planning, construction and property,
Cobden House Chambers’ Paul Whatley and Colin Green are recommended for commercial property disputes.
