Monckton Chambers

Monckton Chambers is a leading set of barristers' chambers, based in London. We practise across a wide range of commercial and civil law, with a particular focus on EU, competition, VAT, other indirect taxes and public & administrative law. The interrelationship between domestic law, EU law and international human rights law is central to much of our work, and our members have unrivalled expertise in these areas. We are recognised as market leaders in specialist advocacy, advisory and dispute-resolution services. We are renowned for our intellectual rigour, commercial focus and ability to get results. We act for private sector clients (from multinationals to SMEs and private individuals), the UK Government, regulators, local authorities, NGOs and non-UK bodies, including foreign states and the EU institutions. This breadth of experience means that members are sensitive to the commercial objectives of private clients and also have a good understanding of governmental and regulatory decision-making processes. Several members have a detailed knowledge of specific industries and sectors.
