Welcome to New Walk Chambers
The largest set of Barristers Chambers in Leicester.

Alternative conference arrangements

Chambers is always fully committed to catering to the client's needs and, where necessary, members will happily co-operate in making alternative conference arrangements to suit the requirements of disabled clients, or clients whose mobility is restricted whether due to age or infirmity, where it would be difficult or inconvenient for them to come to Chambers itself. In such cases if the instructing solicitor notifies the Chambers Administrator no less than 24 hours before the conference of the need for it to take place elsewhere than at Chambers then Counsel will travel to the client.

(If booking Counsel through the enquiry form on the Contact page please indicate if alternative conference arrangements are required under "additional information".)

Our premises in Leicester's New Walk offer conferencing facilities, a first class library, full computerisation, twenty six barristers and a dedicated clerking team headed by our Practice Manager, Michael Ryan.
