At New Park Court Chambers, we do things a little differently. With 70 junior barristers and 16 King’s Counsel, our reach and influence stretches far beyond the bounds of our Circuit.
As a Tier 1 Set based in Leeds and Newcastle we are home to a number of high profile and nationally and internationally reputable Counsel.
Many of our successful pupils have their first taste of life at the Bar by applying for a mini-pupillage towards the latter stages of University or whilst at Bar School.
These tend to last two days and involve shadowing a member of Chambers and attending court, at the end of which the mini-pupil is assessed on a variety of criteria.
While a mini-pupillage with us is not essential, it is of assistance to the Pupillage Committee when considering application.
We are unable to accept applications for mini-pupillage from those at school.
We are currently reviewing and revising our mini pupillage application and selection process. During this period we will temporarily not be accepting mini pupillage applications.
We intend to launch our new mini pupillage scheme, which will include details on how to apply, by 31 May 2026.
Thank you.
