THE CHAMBERS Coram Chambers is one of the country’s most prestigious family law sets, and winner of the London '2021 Clerking Team of the Year', '2020 Case of the Year' and ‘2019 Chambers of the year’ at the Family Law Awards. Led by Mark Twomey KC and Alison Easton KC, it has a national reputation for providing and delivering excellent advocacy and client care to both lay and professional clients. Coram Chambers has a particularly strong commitment to equality and diversity and are proud to be one of the most diverse chambers in the country. Members of chambers are at the forefront of developments in family law, and appear regularly in leading and landmark cases.

Chambers has strong dedicated teams specialising in contentious child-focussed disputes (involving all aspects of private and public law), international disputes and abduction, financial remedy and property actions (including schedule 1 and TOLATA) as well as more niche areas such as alternative family work, genetics, human rights and cases involving aspects of parental alienation.

To both their lay and professional clients, Coram offers unparalleled depth and breadth of experience. Their reputation has been built on the consistently outstanding quality of their advocacy, the legal acumen and knowledge they bring to every case, and the strength of their negotiation skills. They are known amongst the judiciary and peers for superb, well-judged and robust witness handling and submissions. Members of chambers frequently win national prizes and are widely recognised as experts in their fields; contributing books, articles, podcasts and publications. Coram is proud to have produced some of the country’s most highly regarded full time and part time judges.

Members of chambers appear regularly at all levels of court including the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court and have a strong track record in the Court of Protection and the Administrative Courts. In 2019, they appeared in the Supreme court on NY (A Child) and Villiers v Villiers. They have vast experience of all aspects of family law and represent parties at every level of tribunal.
