Clerks

Our clerks are integral to the the smooth running of Chambers. Their excellent judgement and knowledge of the barrister team means cases are allocated with sensitivity and consideration to the client, the type of case and the barristers experience. We are delighted that one of our junior clerks, Oliver Morgan, was shortlisted in the Junior Clerk of the Year category at The Legal 500 Bar Awards 2023.

“Like the barristers, all the clerks are approachable and helpful”

“The clerks are fantastic – always willing to help and responsive”

“They respond in a timely way and always keep you updated”
