What the Team is Known For
Twenty Essex boasts a strong environmental team of barristers who specialise in international environmental law. The barristers regularly work on large-scale, international climate cases, often for claimants. One source notes that the barristers at Twenty Essex "combine technical skills with good strategic nous and are not afraid of difficult cases". Members of Twenty Essex have acted on cases before the human rights tribunal in the Americas on behalf of the Institute of Small and Micro States regarding climate change and rising sea levels. The set bolsters its environmental practice with a well-regarded energy practice.
Arron Zitver, Christopher Theobald and Anthony Caroll are the practice directors for this set.
