TESTIMONIAL: Mark Rowlands, the Chief Executive at Lamb Chambers is very business savvy. Understands the services levels that law firms need and goes out of his way to help us.

Graeme Sampson is very technical, experienced and great on his feet. We have used Graeme on countless matters and he has the useful habit of getting great results.

We have started to use Ryan Turner this year (2019). Ryan is very bright, extremely helpful and produces terrific work. He’s one of the “one’s to watch” in the construction junior bar.

TESTIMONIAL: I have been lucky enough to work with Lamb Chambers on a number occasions over the last two years. I was introduced to Lamb and was immediately impressed with the commercial and collaborative approach taken by their CEO, Mark Rowlands.

Through Mark’s introduction our Commercial Litigation department has worked with various barristers, all of whom have proven to be both technically excellent and commercially astute. Particular note goes to Tim Frith (Commercial/International), Matthew Winn-Smith (Commercial), and Ryan Turner (Construction).

From a technical perspective, his in-depth knowledge for regulatory consumer credit matters enable him to identify the fundamental issues without delay. He is then able to provide pro-active commercial advice in conjunction with effective practical solutions to meet the needs of his client.

Whilst Chief Executive, Mark Rowlands demonstrates great commercial awareness coupled with the ability to deliver on the service levels our business and clients expect.

Through Mark’s introduction I have instructed the brilliant James Stuart and the very technical Clive Blackwood. Lamb Chambers have very strong insolvency juniors including Hannah Laithwaite, Will Skjøtt and Mark O’Grady.

TESTIMONIAL: As a firm we have used Lamb Chambers for a few years now. Principally John Ditchburn and Hannah Laithwaite. Both of who are very approachable, but commercial and have an eye for detail. They are two of our go to barristers.

We have found Lamb Chambers as a whole very approachable, and Joe Grimmer, John’s and Hannah’s clerk is always helpful, and happy to be flexible on fees.
