Civil Law

In today's society the law permeates daily life in more ways than ever before, meaning that the need for specialist advice and representation is itself ever increasing. Broadway House Chambers' Civil Team combines broad experience with a deep knowledge base to offer effective representation to clients across the wide spectrum of civil litigation.

Our barristers regularly appear in civil matters at every stage, from providing written advice and drafting pleadings, through to trials and disposal hearings in the County Court and High Court, as well as on appeals. Members of the team are often called upon to advise on difficult procedural and practical issues, and can offer expertise in the following areas:

  • Personal Injury (including claims arising out of RTAs)
  • Professional Negligence
  • Judicial Review and Human Rights
  • Chancery, Commercial litigation and Company Law
  • Land ownership disputes and the Lands Tribunal
  • Landlord/Tenant and Housing Law
  • Construction
  • Defamation
  • Protection from Harassment Act 1997 injunctions

One of Broadway House's main strengths is Administrative Law and members often feature in the Administrative Court on contentious cases involving issues such as data protection, the administration of justice, local government, Police powers and human rights. As members of the team also practice in other related fields the level of service our barristers can provide is extensive and versatile.

Chambers is also conscious of funding issues in civil litigation. To this end, and where appropriate, members of the team are willing to consider accepting instructions on a Conditional Fee Agreement basis.
