Sam Carter joins Outer Temple Chambers’ Business Team

Outer Temple Chambers is delighted to welcome Practice Director Sam Carter to our business team.

Sam Carter joins the practice management team today, with responsibility for our commercial and international teams. With a wealth of experience in international ADR, he will be taking a particular interest in driving forward our thriving international arbitration team.

Sam has been clerking for over 15 years, and previously worked with the business team at Outer Temple so already knows the team well. He has spent the last few years in senior clerking roles and was most recently Managing Director of an international arbitration set, focusing on alternative dispute resolution on a global scale. He has worked with clients throughout London and Europe, US and Latin America, Asia Pacific and Middle-East including under some of the most common arbitral institutional rules.

Sam has a proven track record of developing new business and building strong relationships both internationally and domestically, whilst maintaining a high standard of service delivery for both members and clients.  His wider experience spans many years in commercial and private client sets, improving chambers’ operations and strategy. He has also been instrumental in opening international offices and establishing presence in other jurisdictions including Washington DC and Zurich.

He takes pride in client service and understanding client needs to deliver a high standard. Sam keeps in regular contact with new and existing clients, both internationally and domestically, to ensure the same high standard of service is maintained but also improved. He also keeps a close eye on the legal market to ensure the set, services provided and its members continue to adapt and meet ever changing needs and demands of the legal industry, and its clients.

Chief Executive of Chambers, Rebecca Priestley said “We are delighted to welcome Sam back to Chambers. Sam has extensive clerking and business development experience in chambers and commercial enterprises and has built a formidable reputation in the international arbitration arena. He will be a great asset to our business team and will help solidify our reputation as a world class set.”

Sam said of his appointment “I am absolutely thrilled to be re-joining Outer Temple, which has been going from strength to strength. I am extremely excited to be a part of the continued success, and build upon the set’s commercial reputation and international presence, particularly in the Middle-East.”
