At New Park Court Chambers, we do things a little differently. With a total of 74 barristers, including 13 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.
Based in Leeds and Newcastle, our reach and influence stretches far beyond the bounds of our Circuit.
We have a reputation for shaping the world around us. We are home to the Circuit Leader of the North Eastern Circuit, a former Head of the Bar and elected serving members of the Bar Council. You will also find us leading and driving learning, education and wellbeing across our Circuit.
But we also understand what else is important and we act on it. We are part of the small group to have been awarded Bar Council Wellbeing Certification, highlighting the absolute importance we place on supporting and enabling our people to flourish. We are also a Carbon Negative Chambers. Because we want our legacy to reflect that we do the right thing.
With work demands exceeding capacity, we currently have tenancy and probationary tenancy (formally known as third six pupillages) opportunities across our Crime, Regulatory, Family and Civil Teams.
These opportunities apply equally to those who have previously practised. We are keen to encourage those who have left the profession to consider returning to it.
If we instinctively feel like somewhere you could call home, reach out to Rob Wagg, our CEO, by email at rob.wagg@newparkcourt.co.uk to arrange a confidential discussion.
Come and help us to do things a little differently.
