An Overview of St Pauls Chambers

At St Pauls, as a proud Leeds barristers chambers, we understand the ever-changing relationship between barristers and solicitors, and between lawyers and lay clients.

We also understand that the independence, integrity and skills, for which barristers have always been valued, must be at the forefront of how our barristers in Leeds work in all areas of law. 

As a leading barristers chambers in Leeds, our expertise span the depth and breadth of a number of key areas of law. We believe that the qualities that all clients – lay and professional – value in barristers must be the centre of our professional focus.

Our Expert Leeds Barristers

You can search for our Leeds barristers who are authorised to practise in England and Wales on the Barristers’ Register. The Register records their practising status and address, the reserved legal activities they are authorised to undertake and whether they have been the subject of any disciplinary findings. Unregistered barristers and barristers who have been disbarred are not on the Register as they are not allowed to practise. But you can still find out whether they have had a disciplinary finding here.

The Clients comes first

We are committed to our professional independence and integrity.

We are a team

We take professional development and support seriously.

We focus on quality

We do not recruit to fill space. We have "home grown" Silks well as those who have joined us from other Chambers. All of our barrister members are regulated by the Bar Standards Board.

Excellent service is essential

We are prompt, courteous and reliable and so are our Clerks.

We recognise that cost is important

We are flexible and realistic. The majority of our professional fees are on a fixed fee basis. In some cases we will provide our services on an hourly rate basis supported with a breakdown of the work undertaken.

St Pauls Chambers' Core Principles for Legal Practices

We believe that barristers benefits from mixed practices

And our counsels chambers benefits from the wide range of experience on offer. Not only does that mean we can suit the barristers to the case: it means that all our Leeds barristers are able to take a considerable view of the law and of advocacy.

We believe in direct access at all levels

It saves money for clients who can use it. Professional, licenced access and lay clients may contact counsels chambers to obtain a quotation for legal services. The option of Public Access allows flexibility; we can ensure that clients who need solicitors, use solicitors. It ensures good relationship between chambers and solicitors with whom we work. Of course, we never take money for referrals.

We believe in nurturing talent

We monitor our pupils and our junior tenants. They are asked to help on much bigger cases than they would ever do in their sole name. We have an open door policy when it comes to seeking views and professional help.

We believe in hard work

We do not tolerate laziness, unpreparedness or short cuts. We police ourselves rigorously. No lawyer can guarantee success, but no case must go by default because the lawyers are not able to give of their best.

Barristers Smiling

Finally, we understand that advocacy is about communicating and persuading people. We try not to be pompous, to use pretentious language for the sake of it, or to talk over the heads of our clients. When all is said and done, it boils down to this:
Our clients come to us with problems – it is our job to provide a solution.
