Chambers Overview
With ‘great breadth and depth of experience’ in areas such as employment, family, media and public law, Field Court Chambers has ‘an excellent range of counsel, who always impress with the quality of their work and willingness to go the extra mile’. The clerks also garner praise: ‘they are dependable and never let you down’, and ‘provide splendid support’. In particular, senior clerk Ian Boardman is ‘helpful and friendly’ and ‘tailors the service he provides to suit client needs’. He is supported by deputy senior clerk Mark Townsend (‘very efficient and pleasant to deal with’) and first junior Hayley Walker (‘outstanding at what she does and always trying to accommodate’). Some say they ‘have tried other Chambers in the past but always come back to this set due to the excellent service from the clerks and barristers’.
