Welcome to Casalier Chambers
The Casalier was an officer of the Knights Templar responsible for the resolution of disputes and management of property. The name and the traditional symbol of the two templars on horseback has been adopted by Casalier Chambers in an innovative venture that provides dispute resolution and legal services from barristers who are members of Middle Temple and the other Inns of Court.
The barristers at Casalier Chambers provide legal services by way of professional access from solicitors and other professionals licensed by The Bar Council of England and Wales and also by private and business clients in accordance with Public Access Rules (2004).
In addition, arbitration, mediation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services are provided by chambers through Casalier Limited, a dispute resolution company that is also responsible for the administration and running of chambers.
For all enquiries, please contact our Chambers Manager on 01306 632100 or via email to info@casalier.com.
