Iscoed Chambers has undergone extensive renovation work over the last 12 months, with external and internal redecorations and more modern video conferencing equipment having been installed. Our barristers would be pleased to conduct client conferences and mediations at chambers.

QOCS Protection lost in relation to agreed damages, including Part 36, and defendants' costs can be set off against claimant costs. Ho and Cartwright overturned. This applies to claims issued from 6 April 2023. The new rule is here. legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023…

Those for whom a legal anorak is more than just a way of keeping dry on the walk to court may be interested to know that Benjamin Blakemore from @IscoedChambers is sitting as a recorder in Swansea Crown Court today.

Would like to extend warm congratulations to Paul Hobson on his appointment as Circuit Judge. HHJ Paul Hobson will sit in Crime in the Crown Court at Cardiff. He will be missed, but Chambers is enormously proud of him and wishes him very well indeed

Powerful words from Jonathan Rees QC at Cardiff barristers' picket. He says colleagues have been "driven out" of the jobs they love because they could not afford to stay, and describes junior criminal barristers' median income of just £12,200 a year as "scandalous"

Chambers would like to warmly congratulate Ian Wright on his election as our new Head of Chambers. He succeeds Stephen Rees, who has led Chambers since 2015. We wish Stephen well for his "post HoC" life and thank him for his hard work in the role.
