About Chambers:-

Alexander Barristers Chambers (The Chambers of Lee Gledhill) was set up in early 2007 by a small number of barristers (lawyers) who specialise in medical & regulatory law.

Bringing together significant expertise under one roof, Alexander Barristers act for members of unions, professionals from various disciplines, and on instructions from solicitors and members of the public.

Our barristers provide legal advice, advice on evidence and procedure, and prepare cases for hearings. They also provide legal representation in courts and tribunals. Some of our barristers provide litigation services too, similar to high street solicitors.

All barristers at Alexander Chambers are independent, sole practitioners, who carry professional indemnity insurance for the legal services work they undertake.

'Alexander' from the Greek 'Alexandros', meaning 'defender of the people'.
