Civil
The Becket Chambers Civil Team acts regularly in all aspects of Civil Law, including fast track and multi-track cases from pre-issue, throughout proceedings to judgment and subsequent enforcement.
If you wish to bring a Civil case, or need to defend one, it is important to be aware that in a Civil Law case the burden of proof rests with the defendant – to demonstrate balance of probability.
We can act for you in all Civil Law matters requiring injunctions, in claims for damages, contractual disputes and matters involving costs law.
