5 Essex Chambers recognised as a top set – Legal 500 and Chambers UK Bar 2019

1 November 2018

5 Essex Chambers is delighted to retain its “enviable reputation” as "a leading set” in the major legal directories Legal 500 and Chambers UK Bar with additional junior barristers ranked.

Chambers is ranked as a top-tier set for police law ("without doubt the top police law chambers”) and inquests and inquiries ("arguably the best set for public authority inquest and inquiry work" and "a first choice for the more complex and high-profile work of this type"). Chambers and our barristers are also recognised for administrative and public law, immigration and professional discipline.

We are grateful to our clients for their support and feedback about our barristers who are described as "first-class", “impressive”, "exceptional" and "brilliant", and our clerks who “always go the extra mile to help out and ensure you get the best service and the barrister you need”.

Chambers has also been praised for being "very commercial in terms of pricing structure" and "good at communication so that distance is never an issue"; "Counsel obviously have accessibility ingrained as a mantra".
