42BR Barristers to be joined by 4 Brick Court in summer 2026

Under the plans, 34 members of 4 Brick Court (and their pupils) will be joining 42BR’s 60 strong family group, creating one of the largest single-site sets of chambers in the UK.

According to 42BR, both chambers will continue to “operate as usual” while the work to integrate the two operations continues.

Following the transition, members of 4BC will continue their practices under the 42BR Barristers flag, working with their existing clerks and maintaining existing relationships with clients.

42BR said: “This development reflects the shared commitment to build a high-quality specialist family team but within the 42BR barristers common law structure that continues to grow from strength to strength.”

The Chambers noted that further details will be “shared in due course”.

Tina Cook KC, Head of 42BR Barristers said: “We are absolutely thrilled that 4BC will be joining 42BR this summer. They bring their excellent reputation and strong, established practices and we are committed to supporting their continued success from within chambers. This is an exciting opportunity and cements our reputation as a centre of legal excellence."

Isabelle Watson, Head of 4BC added: “4BC are absolutely delighted that we are joining 42BR this summer. This is the beginning of a new and exciting chapter for 4BC and we very much look forward to working with the excellent practitioners and staff at 42BR. Our priority throughout is continuity for our clients, and we look forward to continuing our work with care, determination and professionalism, supported by the wider team at 42BR Barristers.”
