About Us

Demstone Chambers is a set of experienced barristers who work closely with clients across a range of practice areas. Our expertise includes family, immigration, employment, and civil law – for more detail on our practice areas, see Our Services.

We are the first barristers’ chambers to be established in Milton Keynes. While our main office remains in Milton Keynes, we regularly work in surrounding areas and can provide services to clients across the UK. Billal Malik set up the practice with the aim of providing flexible and tailored legal services to the public, through a direct access offering. This means members of the public can instruct our barristers directly, without going through a solicitor first. Through this approach, we provide a client-focused service offering as we grow. You can find out more about our services here.

The barristers at Demstone Chambers bring years of specialist experience across our practice areas. Our team also includes practice managers, and chambers assistants who are working towards a career in legal practice. For more information on our barristers and wider team, select their images below.
