In the newly announced Chambers & Partners rankings for 2026, Astraea is ranked as a Dispute Specialist Firm (Band 4) and as a Professional Discipline Firm (Band 4). James Ramsden KC has also been ranked individually for Professional Discipline (Band 4).

Astraea is now firmly on the Chambers and Partners map!

The firm is ranked in Band 4 of Dispute Resolution Specialist Firm and in Band 4 for Professional Discipline, with James Ramsden KC again ranked individually in Band 4 for Professional Discipline.

This is an important step for our small, pioneering, and ambitious firm. In terms of Chambers and Partners’ rankings, we started from scratch when James Ramsden KC and Nina Stewart (El-Imad) Stewart founded Astraea in 2020. This year’s rankings – which put us alongside much larger firms – are an important stamp of approval for our strategy, our ethos and our people. We’re very grateful to our clients and contacts in these and other areas of our work for their continued trust and support, and their positive endorsement of our culture and services.

Astraea is deliberately different. With our multidisciplinary platform, we are able to look at our clients’ problems from all the angles and to apply judgment honed by decades of experience across different fields.
