Broadway House Chambers invites you to join our Criminal Team
Due to an increase in criminal instructions across all levels, we are seeking to recruit Counsel within this particular area. Whether you are an up-and-coming barrister with your sights set on a successful criminal practice, an eminent silk or an experienced criminal junior looking to move your career onto the next level, Broadway House Chambers should be your first choice.
“Broadway House is a highly regarded set on the North Eastern Circuit and is regularly called upon to handle a wide range of criminal matters. Members are noted for their expertise in serious criminal cases relating to homicides, sexual offences and organised crime, and have experience acting for both the prosecution and the defence. The set also houses considerable strength in regulatory crime and money laundering matters” (Chambers and Partners, 2022)
Barristers are often said to be drawn from a narrow, privileged elite, unrepresentative of the communities they serve. At Broadway House Chambers we seek to challenge that stereotype: we are proud of our history but we strive to offer a distinctive, innovative approach to the provision of legal services.
If you share our ambition and vision for the future, we look forward to receiving your application. You can be reassured that any application received will be treated in the strictest confidence.
