Barristers' Chambers refer to a collection or association of lawyers who are qualified to appear in court. They collectively own a practice on the same premises. This gives people the ability to choose from a group of lawyers who are all situated in one place. This does not mean that lawyers do not compete with each other, because they do. There is a big advantage to such an association. The client who uses one lawyer could ask another lawyer on the same premises to represent them if the counsel he or she is wishes to use is unavailable. If the desired counsel is too busy to concentrate on a case he can refer a client to another barrister within the premises. These professionals can also share costs.

There are small and large barrister chambers. The smaller chambers may specialize in only some areas of law such as patent rights or the laws of divorce. Large rooms can be made up of a group of lawyers who specialize in different areas of law, which allows for clients to find a barrister to represent any court case.

Many of these new lawyers form groups among themselves in their field and share their experience and knowledge. There are senior counsels that appear in trials and appeals that have complex instructions. It is possible, however, for lawyers to work independently in the chambers of barristers. Speaking before the court requires specialization. This is why those who are in barristers chambers are specialists in their field of law. In addition, they also provide the necessary guidance or legal advice on difficult issues.  Some of these lawyers are experts in mediation. Thus, the parties may request mediation from these individuals.

Because some lawyers are experts in their field, and there are legal provisions that apply to their work, they use services of clerks who specialize in their areas. These clerks may desire to become barristers in the future. Tasks include managing a barrister's or group of barristers' schedules. Clerks focus on delegating court appearances so that no one barrister is overloaded. They find customers for the practice, preserve and maintain law libraries, and make provisions for documents to reach the court in time. They also organize meetings between clients, arrange meetings between lawyers and clients and save time by negotiating fees which saves customers time. These employees also work in the chambers of lawyers.
