Whilst grounded in the common law tradition, Fenners Chambers is organised around groups of barristers, each led by a senior member of chambers and specialising in different areas of work: Commercial, Crime, Environment & Planning, Employment, Family, Personal Injury, Property and Probate & Inheritance law. Within each group there is further individual specialisation. The degree of specialisation varies from member to member and some members are prepared to undertake work, especially advocacy, in certain areas outside their main specialisations. In particular, more junior members often cover a broad spectrum of work until their specialisations are sufficiently well defined. We realise that for many lay clients litigation can be a new and worrying experience and we welcome the opportunity of a personal meeting. An early conference can be invaluable, enabling counsel to provide a clearer assessment of the case and enhancing the client's appreciation of the issues involved. We are always happy to review cases as they progress. Both our Cambridge and Peterborough premises are readily accessible. A number of conference rooms are available, with access and facilities for visitors with disabilities. There is ample on-site parking at our Cambridge chambers; parking at Peterborough is by prior arrangement, although there are extensive public car parks within close walking distance. Please telephone the clerks if you have any concerns about access. Alternatively, we will be pleased to attend conferences at solicitors' offices. Where the dispute concerns property, or if the client has a disability, a conference at the client's premises may be more convenient. |
