Mercantile Barristers Chambers is a new brand of modern barristers’ chambers, based in Gray’s Inn Square, London and established in 2016. The barristers in our Chambers specialise in providing legal advice and representation in variety of practice areas, including construction law, contractual disputes, commercial litigation, wills & probate, employment law, & engineering.
We are specialist consultants in the law for when the legal issues involved are complex, intricate and so important that the most seasoned expertise in advice and handling is required. This is why Mercantile Barristers is structured to ensure clients’ legal needs are met and suited for a respective barrister upon inquiry.
Our consultation process not only gives you direct-access to legal expertise, but also lowers the cost of your legal processes since clients are able to instruct a barrister directly, rather than through a solicitor only.
Barristers are regulated by the Bar Standards Board (“the BSB”); and the BSB brought new transparency rules into force as of 1 July 2019, following the Competition and Markets Authority’s (CMA’s) recommendation in December 2016 that the legal regulators deliver a step change in transparency standards to help consumers understand the price and service they will receive, what redress is available and the regulatory status of their provider.
Our members at Mercantile Barristers are Public Access Trained and are happy to be consulted by and we accept instructions directly from professionals and discerning private clients at any time (for direct access barristers). To book an appointment with one of our Barristers in London please call us and speak to our clerks who will find the best barrister for you.
People are at the heart of our business and our success depends upon their performance. We aim to harness our employee’s knowledge and talent in order to provide them greater opportunities to progress within the business. Please feel free to browse the available vacancies and if you are interested in working with us, please contact us.
Our approach to legal practice is always to articulate creative and value-adding solutions for clients whilst delivering timely, efficient, and affordable professional services. All clients conduct their affairs within a legal context, and Mercantile Barristers’ role is to advise on the conduct of their transactions and affairs in ways that avoid conflict and disputes.
Whether by adjudication, arbitration, or litigation, Mercantile Barristers members will adopt a firm, swift and decisive approach to achieve the best possible results for clients within the shortest time. We recognise that no two cases are the same, so we will adapt our style to suit the occasion.
