Banking & finance

Barristers and banks generally cross paths when something costly has gone wrong in relation to a transaction or product.

Chancery

Traditional chancery includes trusts, probate, real property and tax, while commercial chancery covers a range of finance and business disputes.

Commercial dispute resolution

The commercial Bar covers a range of areas, including banking, sale of goods and shipping, insolvency, civil fraud, and insurance/reinsurance.

Company law

Company law is relevant to almost everything a company does, from filing annual returns to proper procedure in relation to board decisions.

Construction & engineering

Contentious construction work involves the resolution of disputes by way of litigation, mediation, adjudication or arbitration.

European Union and international

Employment barristers may appear before the International Court of Justice, the European Court of Human Rights, international tribunals and domestic courts.

Insolvency/restructuring

Some of the biggest insolvencies have billions of pounds at stake, so there can be lucrative work for barristers.

Insurance/reinsurance

Insurance is one of the UK's most well-established and valuable industries.

International arbitration

When parties from different jurisdictions come into conflict over commercial relationships, they may decide that arbitration is the best method of resolution.

Landlord & tenant/housing

Housing/landlord and tenant law encompasses all aspects of residential and commercial tenancies covering issues like disrepair, human rights and succession.

Planning/environment

Planning law regulates the way property owners use and develop their property in the interests of the wider community.

Professional negligence

Barristers involved in this field deal with claims against professionals such as architects, accountants, solicitors and financial advisers.

Property law (now sometimes labelled as real estate) embraces a wide range of work, including real property, such as contracts for sale, covenants and land registration, trusts over land; and commercial and residential tenancies involving issues as diverse as disrepair, possession claims, succession and assignment.
