Family set expands with the formal integration of 4 Brick Court into 42BR Barristers
4 Brick Court has officially combined with 42BR Barristers, bringing 35 members, two pupils, a probationary tenant and two members of staff into the set. The merger strengthens 42BR’s family law offering across public law, private law and financial remedies, while giving clients access to expertise in complementary areas including employment, business and property, housing, personal injury and clinical negligence.
The chambers said clients would continue to receive the ‘same high standard of service’, with the existing practice management team remaining in place and supported by 42BR’s wider team. Existing 4 Brick Court email addresses and telephone numbers will continue to operate through automatic redirection, while future updates will be shared via 42BR’s social media channels.
Vincent Denham, chambers director at 42BR Barristers, said: ‘We are delighted to welcome the members and staff of 4 Brick Court to 42BR Barristers.’ He added that the two sets shared a commitment to ‘excellence in advocacy, outstanding client service and a collaborative, supportive culture’, describing the combination as ‘an important milestone’ in 42BR's continued growth.
