Position
Adam Riley joined 3 Hare Court as a Tenant in October 2021 following the successful completion of his pupillage. He has a civil practice comprising commercial, public, employment, travel and personal injury law. His practice has both a domestic and an international dimension.
He acquired experience across all areas of Chambers’ expertise during pupillage and frequently appears in trials, interim applications and preliminary hearings, in addition to managing a busy paperwork practice.
Adam is building a reputation as a dependable junior. He has been instructed in a number of matters beyond his year of call, including numerous complex constitutional appeals before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.
Before pupillage Adam gained exposure to a range of practice areas, including receiving a grant to work with attorneys in New Orleans on death row appeals and working on asylum claims in Greece with an international NGO. During his legal studies he worked in the civil liberties team at Hodge, Jones and Allen LLP and volunteered with Liberty. He also regularly appeared, on a pro bono basis, before the First-tier (social security) Tribunal as a representative with the Free Representation Unit, the Zacchaeus 2000 Trust and as a legal advisor with the UCL Centre for Access to Justice
