Commercial chancery barrister joins chambers

XXIV Old Buildings has expanded its commercial and chancery team with the addition of international commercial dispute, arbitration and offshore litigation specialist James Bradford, who has joined chambers from 39 Essex Chambers.

James is a busy junior with an established commercial chancery practice, which focuses on domestic and international commercial disputes, arbitration, trusts and offshore litigation.

A native Italian speaker, James is bilingual, and is regularly instructed in matters involving Italian documents, witnesses and/or clients.

James commented: ‘I am delighted to be joining such a renowned set in practice areas that strongly align with my experience and interests. I look forward to further strengthening and developing my practice at XXIV Old Buildings.’

Head of chambers Elspeth Talbot Rice KC said: ‘We are thrilled that James is joining our powerful team of chancery commercial juniors. Having worked with him, I know he shares chambers’ core values of being accessible, responsive and solutions-driven, as well as being hard-working and a delight to work with. I am confident that he and his practice will flourish at XXIV Old Buildings and we are very much looking forward to his arrival.’

Paul Horsfield, head of clerking, commented: ‘James’s arrival bolsters our established chancery and commercial offering. His busy practice fits in well with our core practice areas and we are excited for him to build upon and develop his practice in the UK and internationally.’
