Administrative & Public Law - London (Bar)
What the Team is Known For
39 Essex Chambers, a set with "public and administrative law heavyweights, able to take on high-profile and complex work", is exceptionally well established across the full scope of public law work, and is as notable for the volume of Administrative Court advocacy its barristers undertake as for their appearances in the leading Supreme Court appeals. The set houses "an excellent array of top-quality" counsel who are firm favourites of government departments and local authorities, and who additionally act for claimants and charities. Chambers continues to demonstrate a marked affinity for work involving the provision of health or social care. Barristers from the set have led in a high-profile Supreme Court appeal concerning the rights of clinicians to lifelong anonymity and have been involved in numerous judicial review proceedings challenging the government's provision of accommodation for migrants and asylum seekers.
