1MCB Chambers is pleased to announce that with effect from 3 August 2026, 13 members and 2 clerks from the former Staple Inn Chambers will joining 1MCB.

The addition of these experienced practitioners broadens and strengthens Chambers expertise across crime, family, immigration, housing and civil, complementing our established practice areas and further enhancing the breadth of specialist legal services available to our professional and lay clients.

 

Founded in 1977, 1MCB formerly 8 KBW, has remained committed to excellence in advocacy, access to justice and representing all sectors of the community. The members and clerks joining share those values and their arrival reinforces Chambers commitment to delivering high quality legal representation through a strong, collegiate and multidisciplinary set.

 

Following the move, the former Staple Inn members will practice as members of 1MCB supported by experienced clerks ensuring continuity of service and maintaining the strong professional relationships they have established with solicitors and other professional clients. Existing instructions and ongoing cases will continue without interruption. Clients will continue to receive the high standard of service they expect, with the added benefit of access to the wider expertise, broader range of practice areas and enhanced resources available across 1MCB.

 

We are delighted to welcome our new colleagues and look forward to the contribution they will make as Chambers continues to develop, grow and strengthen its multidisciplinary practice for the benefit of clients, professional users and the communities we serve.
