Harcourt Chambers

Harcourt is a leading specialist family law chambers.

Our barristers have reached the highest levels in the profession; we are home to some of the leading silks in the country, and former members now occupy some of the highest levels of the judiciary. Our barristers have accumulated a wealth of experience appearing in all courts and have appeared in many of the leading and most important family law decisions of recent years in the High Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. Many of our team bring their experience of sitting as part-time judges (Deputy District Judges, Recorders and Deputy High Court Judges) to their advocacy.

We were recognised as “Family Law Chambers of the Year – London” at the LexisNexis Family Law Awards 2018 and “Family Set of the Year” at the Chambers UK Bar Awards 2016. Harcourt has been ranked as a leading set in both Chambers UK Bar, which says “the set is full of talent, from top to bottom” and Legal 500 UK Bar which describes us as having “very intelligent, knowledgeable, articulate and eloquent barristers.”

Our reputation is built not only on our skills as advocates, but also on our ability to provide an efficient and approachable service to our professional and lay clients. Alongside legal expertise, Harcourt provides a highly responsive, friendly clerking service, ensuring that instructing solicitors and clients have early access to the most appropriate representation.

Our mission is to provide the highest quality, most cost efficient, and easily accessible legal advice, representation and service to individuals, organisations and our professional clients.
