Pupillage

Recently recognised as Employment Set of the Year by Chambers and Partners, Littleton Chambers is a long-established civil set, specialising in employment law, commercial litigation, mediation and professional negligence. Our success is based upon both the desire to maintain high professional standards and a willingness to embrace change.

Chambers prides itself on the skills of its tenants, not only as top-quality academic lawyers and advocates, but also for their practical and unstuffy approach. This creates an environment which is industrious, supportive and down to earth. Our tenants feature in many of the leading cases in our practice areas and regularly appear in the Court of Appeal, the House of Lords and the ECJ.

We take a considerable amount of care in choosing our pupils. We like to take on pupils who not only have excellent academic skills, but who show a flair for advocacy, have the ability to understand practical commercial issues and, importantly, have the interpersonal skills to provide the qualities that are expected of the modern day Bar.

Many former candidates have commented positively on the thoroughness of our selection procedure, which is designed both to test the aptitude and abilities of candidates and to allow candidates to get a real feel for what makes us stand out as a set of chambers. Having invested time and effort into this selection process, we support our pupils throughout pupillage in the strong hope that they will be successful in their applications for tenancy in due course.
