And we are back.........

 After a while away from Blogging, and being reminded by an email that I had not used this account for some time, and for fear of losing the account forever, and therefore some history of Chambers People along the way, I have written this page!

Chambers People was started by me in 2002 following a difficult summer, when I was made redundant when the chambers I was then in split. I was at the time the Chambers Director and Senior Clerk. 

In the background at the time there were serious family health issues going on, and the loss of my mother-in-law after a long illness just added to a difficult time.

I started Chambers People Limited in October 2002 and was quickly hired by various clients for both Business Development work and Staff Recruitment projects. 

The work developed rapidly and before long Chambers People was established as the (then) only provider of staff recruitment services to chambers in England and Wales.

Now, over 20 years later, we have a group of professional consultants who are providing help to barristers, barristers chambers, and law firms here and abroad.

Chambers Fees Service uses a team of freelance individual fees clerks who are located around the country, to provide outsourced fees billing and collection services.

And we still provide a range of training sessions to Clerks and Barristers as required on a range of topics -from Public Access to Business Development and Practice Management.
