Halsbury Chambers is one of the leading groups of criminal barristers in Queensland. Each member of Halsbury Chambers is a specialist advocate with vast experience in criminal law, in addition to all aspects of public law, incorporating regulatory prosecutions, administrative law, inquests and commissions of inquiry. The barristers who form part of the group have a reputation for excellence in the conduct of criminal trials, sentences, and appeals. They appear in all state and federal courts, at trial and appellate level, in addition to specialist tribunals.

Halsbury Chambers was originally formed in the 1970’s by a group of barristers in the old Ansett Building. When the new Inns of Court was built and opened in 1987 that group merged with two others to form the current chambers which then took up residence on level 13 of the Inns of Court where it remains to this day.

A number of past members of Halsbury Chambers have accepted appointments to the District and Magistrates Courts of Queensland and to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. 

The individual profiles demonstrate a wealth of advocacy experience in the criminal jurisdiction, coupled with capacity and expertise in several other areas of practice.

Various members are experienced in particular fields, including administrative review, building and construction, contract, criminal, insurance, planning and environment, professional negligence, property, torts, trade practices and competition and wills and estates.
