Christopher Stead Email & Phone Number

Barrister specialising in business and commercial, property, and inheritance and estates law. Following pupillage at Kings Chambers in 2008 under Mark Harper KC and Andrew Latimer, I became a tenant in the chancery and commercial team. I took a career break to enter the church, and teach theology at undergraduate and masters levels at a ministerial training institution. Since returning to the Bar at Pump Court Chambers, I have quickly built up my chancery and commercial litigation practice again, and undertake advocacy, advising, and drafting work across the business and property spectrum, as well as significant work in probate, inheritance, and estates. I am the Deputy Head of the Commercial Team at Pump Court, and am an active member of the Chancery Bar Association.Alongside my busy court and client practice, I regularly provide training to professional clients, having delivered seminars at Pump Court Chambers' Property and Inheritance teams events. I also provide training and teaching through MBL, specifically in inheritance and probate matters. I co-founded and co-host the Pump Court Chambers Civil Law Podcast
