Hari Kaur practices in the areas of Inquiries, Family Law and Inquests.
In February 2025 Hari accepted instructions to join the Undercover Police Inquiry as a junior counsel representing the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis. This Public Inquiry was set up to get to the truth about undercover policing since 1968 across England and Wales and provide recommendations for the future.
From October 2023 to January 2025, Hari was a junior member of the counsel team on the Thirlwall Inquiry. The Thirlwall Inquiry was set up to examine events at the Countess of Chester Hospital and their implications following the conviction of former neonatal nurse Lucy Letby of murder and attempted murder at the hospital.
Hari has significant experience in the family courts in cases involving sexual abuse and serious/fatal alleged non-accidental injury cases where numerous expert witnesses are instructed.
Furthermore, her considerable background in dealing with complex legal issues has resulted in instructions being received in respect of cases in the Coroner’s Court and from NHS Trusts where the Trust seeks advice as to whether to intervene in family proceedings where allegations of negligence are being made against the NHS Trust. Such cases are usually in the context of allegations of non-accidental injury.
The complexity of Hari’s practice is such that she is led by King’s Counsel on numerous cases and also regularly appears, without King’s Counsel, in cases where one or more of the other parties have instructed Leaders.
Hari is qualified to accept instructions directly from clients and is registered under the Bar Council’s Public Access Scheme, meaning that members of the public who seek specialist advice can come direct to her. In addition, she welcomes instructions from solicitors, in-house law departments, qualified foreign lawyers, and clients licensed by the Bar Council to give instructions direct to barristers under the Bar Council’s Licensed Access Scheme.
