Venus Chong

I joined Barwells’ Peacehaven office as a Solicitor in 2024 following my qualification for the role earlier in the year. I specialise in Private Client matters such as the drafting and advising on Wills and Powers of Attorney, handling Probate and the Administration of Estates.

During my years of study, I developed a deep fascination in Private Client matters. Starting from studying the topic in my undergraduate degree, to providing pro bono work whilst finishing my masters, I then trained in Private Client law in Buckinghamshire. I only recently relocated to Sussex where I had initially completed my undergraduate.

Having been trained in this specialism my entire working life, I pride myself in my ability to offer professional and practical advice to my clients while being sympathetic to their needs.

I firmly believe that the role of a Solicitor is to be a translator of the intricacies of the law and I strive to achieve this with every client I have.

Outside of the office, I enjoy cooking, long walks with good friends, or playing video games on the desktop I built.
