Good Law in Practice with Jamie Potter

Insight with HReSource

In this episode we meet one of the UK's leading Public Law and Human Rights lawyers. Jamie Potter is a man with an outstanding track record, noted for dealing with matters of injustice and driven to set records straight. The simple fact is Jamie finds all forms of injustice as being hugely inefficient ways to operate and that disconnect drives him to find the solutions his clients need.

As an Australian with an aptitude for orienteering it's no surprise that this man has navigated his way to success in cases involving the UK Government, political parties, large retailers and a variety of domestic and international public bodies.
