2 Hare Court, the Chambers of Jonathan Laidlaw KC, is a long-established set, whose Members provide first-class advocacy and advice over a wide range of specialist areas and in the most high-profile and complex cases. Chambers is recognised nationally and internationally as one of the leading criminal and regulatory sets in the UK.
Chambers was founded in the 1950s and has always been located in Hare Court in the Inner Temple. It has long enjoyed a stellar reputation, originally in the field of criminal law but over the last 20 to 25 years also in business and financial services crime, regulatory crime, professional discipline, public inquiries, inquests and sports law.
Our reputation in our traditional and current areas of specialism owes much to former members who were the leaders in their day and whose reputations remain undimmed, including:
Past and current members have appeared in some of the leading and most newsworthy cases of this century and continue to do so.
We moved from 1 Hare Court to our current premises in 2000 and, whilst choosing to remain in the Temple, have refurbished our accommodation to provide a modern environment which meets the needs of our clients, staff and Members.
2 Hare Court and its Members rank highly in the leading directories.
