Council names 10 chambers to £4m barristers services framework

Bedford Borough Council has appointed 10 sets of chambers to a barristers’ services framework worth an estimated £4m.

The framework has been divided into the following lots:

  1. Barristers’ Services for Adults, Children and Education (ACE).
  2. Barristers’ Services for Governance, Planning, Property and Litigation (GPPL).

The successful chambers were:

  • 39 Essex Chambers (Lots 1, 2)
  • 4 Brick Court (1)
  • 42 Bedford Row (1, 2)
  • 5 Pump Court (1)
  • Cornerstone Barristers (1, 2)
  • Field Court (1, 2)
  • Francis Taylor Building (2)
  • Landmark Chambers (1, 2)
  • New Court Chambers (1)
  • Regency Barristers Chambers (1)

The council said: “This framework will provide a route to market for the purchase of barristers’ services, where there is demand for capacity or specialist expertise that cannot be met within the council’s in-house Legal Services Unit.”
