Direct Access Barrister

Andrew Charles Marsden

I resolve disputes between shareholders, directors, partners and commercial agents/principals.

I graduated with first class honours in Business Law and obtained the prestigious degree of Bachelor of Civil Law at Oxford University. I originally practiced as a solicitor with Freshfields Burckhaus Deringer and have now been a barrister for nearly 30 years.. In 2015 I established Commercial Chambers. I am recognised as a leading practitioner with both specialist expertise and substantial practical and commercial experience in a field that I describe as one of “;commercial divorce”. I am an experienced CEDR trained mediator. I am included in Band 1 of Chambers UK and the Legal 500 and I was included in the “Chambers 100” list marking me out as one of the very best barristers in the country in my field of specialist expertise. I have been nominated as “Barrister of the Year” in Bristol several times. I am a member of The Commercial Bar Association and The Chancery Bar Association. I am authorised to accept instructions under the Direct Public Access scheme.
