Legal 500 Rankings

Chambers is delighted to have received a total of 65 recommendations in the 2022 edition of the Legal 500 directory.

35 individual members of Chambers (14 QCs and 21 juniors) were recommended as leaders in their fields across 9 of Chambers’ practice areas (Business & Regulatory crime, General Crime, Criminal Fraud, Health & Safety, Professional Discipline & Regulatory, Inquests & Inquiries, Environment, Sport, and Police Law).  

There was praise for 2 Bedford Row within the guide for its “tremendous strength in depth” and Chambers was described as “one of the best chambers out there. They are a dream to work with from a practitioners point of view. Very able and very dedicated in providing a first class service.”  There is also praise for 2 Bedford row as  “one of the best, if not the best, sets in the country in the fields of crime, business investigations and corporate governance, inquiry and inquest work, regulatory work and health and safety work”, “The best criminal/fraud set in London/South East” and “one of the leading sets in the country for criminal regulatory work (including health and safety)”

There was also strong praise for Chambers’ “really helpful and efficient” clerking team, particularly John Grimmer (described as  “A real gentleman who shepherds his barristers expertly … incredibly easy to deal with, pragmatic, flexible and always provides excellent advice” and who “understands what solicitors require and always ensures those requirements are met”) and Paul Rogers (described as “one of the best in London”).
