Coronavirus (COVID-19)

We are continuing to offer a full service to our clients whilst also prioritising the welfare of our members, staff and clients. Chambers remains closed. We continue to operate remotely in order to provide the same level of service to our clients and ensure that we operate business as usual.

For conferences booked to take place in chambers we will take steps to make alternative arrangements, for example via telephone, Microsoft Teams, Skype for Business or Zoom. Some court hearings can also be arranged to take place remotely. If you wish to discuss the possibility of a conference being conducted in one of these ways, please contact: clerks@cloisters.com.

If it is absolutely necessary to set up a face to face meeting please contact our Chambers Manager, Alessandra Fanone.

Please send papers electronically, rather than via Post or DX.

If hard copies of papers need to be delivered to chambers please speak to the clerks in the first instance  to arrange delivery. Sending papers to chambers without prior arrangement will cause additional delay in getting them to the intended recipient.

For further information about accessing chambers services in light of Covid-19 click here.
