4 New Square is a leading commercial set of barristers acting and advising in a wide variety of disputes both domestically and internationally. Its members have a strong reputation in commercial dispute resolution and arbitration including banking and financial services, company and insolvency, construction and energy, costs, IT, insurance, professional liability, professional discipline and sports law. They also have expertise in public law and public and private international law.
Individual members of 4 New Square have consistently been included as leading practitioners in the two main legal directories (The Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners). Jackson & Powell on Professional Liability (the main text in this area) is written and edited by current and former members of chambers.
Chambers attracts a large amount of junior advocacy work in a wide range of fields and are regularly involved in high profile cases, which reflects the emphasis on developing pupils and junior tenants into experienced advocates to equip them for a successful career at the Bar.
4 New Square is a member of the Pupillage Gateway. For information regarding applications and deadlines, please visit the Pupillage Gateway website.
We strongly encourage students to apply for a mini-pupillage with us as we believe that they allow prospective applicants to get a real understanding of the work done in chambers. Mini-pupils also have the opportunity to meet members of chambers and get a feel for the working environment. Mini-pupillages last for two days and, save in exceptional circumstances, take place in specific months of each year.
Mini-pupillage application details can be found on our website www.4newsquare.com. Chambers observes a policy of equal opportunity. All mini-pupils, pupils, tenants and staff are selected on merit alone, irrespective of race, gender, age, sexuality, religious or political belief, disability, marital status or background.
The total annual award is £85,000 of which £7,500 is paid immediately upon acceptance of the offer and a further £17,500 can be drawn down during the BPTC year. Pupils are allowed to keep any earnings from their second six months. New tenants benefit from a number of financial arrangements during their first three years of practice, including guaranteed earnings.
