The Honourable Society of Lincoln's Inn (or Lincoln's Inn for short) is an active and thriving society of lawyers with a long history, situated in a tranquil estate in central London.
Lincoln's Inn is one of four Inns of Court to which barristers of England and Wales belong and where they are called to the Bar. Our members are at the heart of everything we do. Membership of Lincoln's Inn is for life and we are proud to offer a range of services to our members including a leading law library, education, hospitality, accommodation and services in our Chapel.
We are also privileged to be able to offer selected services to the public and organisations outside the legal sphere. Lincoln's Inn is sought after as a location for filming and photography and is a popular wedding and conference venue.

We offers excellence across a broad range of legal disciplines underpinned by a strong heritage, and bring together a top-tier team of barristers in London, Dubai, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore to deliver truly international advocacy, arbitration and mediation.
Our experience covers both domestic and overseas jurisdictions.
Essex Court Chambers is a leading set of barristers' chambers specialising in commercial and financial litigation, arbitration, public law and public international law.
Members of Chambers are recognised specialists in all areas of commercial law and handle disputes across the full spectrum of the business and financial world, including banking & finance, civil fraud, corporate/chancery & offshore, insurance & reinsurance, energy, trade, shipping, revenue, and employment.
Chambers is not a firm, nor are its members partners or employees. Rather, Chambers contains the separate, self-contained offices of individual barristers, each self-employed and working separately. Indeed, (as in all specialist sets) individual barristers within Chambers are commonly retained by opposing sides in the same dispute, both in litigation and arbitration.
As well as acting on opposing sides, individuals regularly appear in front of other members acting as Deputy Judges or Arbitrators. Members of Chambers may be instructed individually or in a team to provide a wide range and level of expertise in both contentious and non-contentious work.
