Deans Court Chambers has established an exceptional team of leading and junior counsel undertaking challenging and complex family work across the spectrum of family law, including children cases in both public and private law, Court of Protection cases, and Finance and Property cases. Both leading and junior counsel demonstrate a quality and experience unrivalled in the North.
Leading and Junior Counsel regularly appear before Courts across the country at all levels, and also in former British Overseas Territories.
We deliver the highest levels of service, combining meticulous preparation and first rate advocacy with a clear and sympathetic approach to clients.
We believe the practice of family law demands sound judgment, detailed knowledge of law and procedure, and the ability to analyse and distil complex and often sensitive issues.
Client care is our highest priority and always at the forefront of our minds.
Our experienced and approachable clerking team is committed to providing counsel of choice and ensuring consistency of representation.
Where that is not possible, our clerks will assist you in selecting alternative counsel of the same high calibre. We are confident you will receive the same excellent quality of service from all the barristers in our team.
