Jones v Kernott

For Chancery and family practitioners dealing with cohabitation claims the wait is over: the Supreme Court finally handed down its Judgment in the eagerly awaited case of Jones v Kernott on 9th November 2011. The latest in a long line of judicial efforts to grapple with the problems created by co-ownership of property, the main impact of the judgment will be in 'joint names' cases.

Luke Barnes and Mark Jones give their initial reaction.

Direct Public Access

Chambers has a commitment to offering direct public access.

As at 21st January 2012 some 19 members of Chambers are licensed by the Bar Council to accept instructions in appropriate cases directly from members of the public.

Members are able to accept such instructions in both our core practice areas of Family and Civil work.

For more information please contact the clerks.
