Harbottle & Lewis was among a group of London law firms that attracted unwanted publicity when they were accused in parliament by the Conservative MP Bob Seely of “legal gangsterism” by acting on behalf of criminals and oligarchs linked to Vladimir Putin and bringing cases to silence critics. The firms denied any wrongdoing.

The firm advises global stars of music, film, television and sport, British and international royalty and wealthy individuals and families on estate, family, defamation, privacy and business-related matters, as well as corporate and commercial clients, including in the entertainment, media and technology sectors.
