Chambers merge

42 Bedford Row and a substantial number of 13 King’s Bench Walk are to merge on 12 May. The new set will be known as 42 Bedford Row and will operate from that address. The resulting set of chambers will include barristers experienced in clinical negligence, commercial, employment, family, personal injury and property law. A statement from 42 Bedford Row said: “The breadth of expertise housed under one roof will be an attractive and competitive prospect for specialist departments of solicitors, as well as organisations and businesses that require a combination of high quality legal skills.”
