3PB Barristers’ Family Law team has achieved 34 individual rankings (+7 compared with 2025) in this year’s Chambers and Partners edition published today. 29 of our family law barristers are ranked across 5 Circuits: in London, the Midlands, North Eastern, South Eastern and Western.
Our team retains its Band 1 rankings for both Family Children and Family Finance in the Midlands, and its Band 2 ranking in Western. In our Midland clients’ own words "The clerking team is excellent too. It's the most responsive and personable in the region." In Western, clients comment that "The service levels and responsiveness of the clerks at the set are excellent", noting that "Their clerks are there to help 24 hours a day."
Head of team Vanessa Meachin KC commented: “I am delighted that our growing team’s expertise and commitment to keep delivering for our clients is recognised in the independent research carried out by Chambers and Partners.
