2 Paper Buildings were one of the first Chambers to be awarded Quality Mark in recognition of the quality of our service and we have successfully maintained this accolade ever since.

Due to the growth of Chambers over the past few years we will be making the short move to newly refurbished premises at 2 Dr Johnson’s Buildings in the summer of 2007. This demonstrates our commitment to excellence through the improvement of our facilities and allows the planned expansion of Chambers to continue. As well as providing increased accommodation and designated conference facilities, we will be installing stateof the art video-conferencing equipment. This will allow direct access to prisons throughout the UK, as well as providing scope for direct links to organisations and individuals internationally.

Criminal
Members of our criminal team accept instructions in every area of criminal work from simple offences of dishonesty to large-scale frauds and from minor public order offences to homicide allegations. Various members of the team specialise in appearing in serious sexual offences. We are instructed by a range of defence solicitors from smaller high street firms to larger firms based in the City. In addition Chambers accepts work from various prosecution agencies including CPS London, the Revenue and Customs Prosecution Office, the Serious Fraud Office, the Department of Work and Pensions, the Department of Health and the Department of Trade and Industry.

In addition we provide an affordable service and responsible attitude to those that we represent on a private basis.
