First published in 1990, Chambers UK has established a reputation for its in-depth research. Based on thousands of interviews with lawyers and clients, Chambers UK ranks solicitors and barristers in over 60 specialist areas of law.

The qualities on which rankings are assessed include technical legal ability, client service, commercial astuteness, diligence, commitment, and other qualities most valued by the client. The rankings and editorial comment about lawyers are independent and objective. Inclusion in the guide is based solely on the research team's findings. No-one can 'buy their way in'.
