Welcome
Chambers of Jonathan Caplan QC and Michael Brompton QC
A top criminal set for over a hundred years, 5 Paper Buildings has at all times had some of the most prominent advocates and best minds at the criminal bar.
With 13 QCs and 31 juniors, our expertise extends well beyond general crime and includes, with increasing emphasis, regulatory and corporate crime in which field Chambers and Partners stated us to be "renowned for excellence". Important sub-specialities include health and safety, trading standards, tribunals and financial services.
We pride ourselves on our friendly atmosphere and the quality of our client care. According to Chambers and Partners 2013, "5 Paper Buildings is 'an excellent and efficient set' with a proud tradition for producing excellent barristers", which has "adapted well to the changing criminal law environment and continues to be in fine fettle".
