Public Access
In addition to receiving instructions via Solicitors certain Barristers, who have undertaken the appropriate training, are now able to accept instructions from individuals and commercial organistations directly.
The scheme is operated under the guidence of The General Council of the Bar, and full details can found by following this link:- http://www.barcouncil.org.uk/assets/documents/Public%20Access%20Guidance%20for%20Lay%20Clients%20-%20March%202010.doc

Please contact Leigh Royall our Senior Clerk to discuss the suitablity of your matter for Public Access and the availability of an appropriate Barrister.
If it appears that it is appropriate for a Barrister to assist you, we will arrange for a preliminary telephone discussion with one of our Barristers. This discussion will not place any commitment upon you to continue with instructing via Public Access nor will it attract a fee.
