Foundry Chambers

Foundry Chambers provides advice and advocacy for individual and corporate clients, as well as all prosecution agencies, local authorities, and regulators, across the full spectrum of criminal law and in civil and regulatory matters involving allegations of financial wrongdoing, professional misconduct, and tax litigation. The chambers also includes practitioners specialising in extradition, public law, and immigration, offering a single point of contact for cases spanning multiple legal disciplines. Members regularly act in high-profile and complex cases, and the set has been ranked for many years as a leading chambers by Chambers & Partners and the Legal 500, described as “a superior criminal set” and “a powerhouse for serious crime.” Founded in 1970 in Inner Temple by Sir Arthur Irvine QC PC, Chambers moved to 9–12 Bell Yard in 1994, operating successfully there until relocating in 2017 to modern premises in Quality Court in London’s legal district, when it relaunched with a new identity. The facilities support client conferences in person or via video-link, with member availability managed by an experienced clerking team.
