Chancery Division

The Chancery Division is a branch of the High Court in England and Wales that deals primarily with issues related to equity, such as trusts, estates, and property disputes. It handles cases involving financial matters, intellectual property, and business disputes, focusing on fairness and justice rather than strict legal rules. Unlike other courts that may use juries, cases in the Chancery Division are typically decided by judges who apply equitable principles. This division aims to resolve disputes with an emphasis on achieving fair outcomes, rather than merely enforcing laws.
