Christopher Bealey.

  • Barrister
  • 2023
Practice Profile

Christopher completed his pupillage and joined chambers as a tenant in October 2024.

During his pupillage Christopher was instructed on a wide range of criminal and regulatory cases, both in the magistrates court and crown court. In his short time in chambers he has already become sought after by solicitors.

Christopher comes to Chambers with significant advocacy experience having already won the Prize for Examination in Chief at the University of Law. He has appeared in front of experienced judges in regional and national moots, and prior to joining Crucible was a qualified advocate for FRU.

During his GDL, Christopher gained experience helping vulnerable individuals during his time with Citizens Advice Bureau.

Prior to pupillage, Christopher marshalled with Tribunal and Crown Court judges, and spent time with litigation-focused solicitors. These experiences have given him a valuable insight into the differing perspectives often found within the courtroom.

Outside of work, he enjoys playing sports, in particular, hockey and running. He uses his experiences playing on a team to help build relationships inside and outside the court.
