Until recently, it was not possible for members of the public to go to a barrister directly; they needed to use a solicitor, or some other recognised form of access. This has now changed. Although the barrister’s role remains the same, members of the public may now instruct a barrister direct (Public Access)
Some cases obviously will be suitable for Public Access. In such a case, and provided that (a) the barrister is willing to undertake the work, (b) agreement can be reached about the charge which will be made for that work and (c) where appropriate, you have provided satisfactory proof of your identity, your instructions will be accepted and a client care letter will be sent to you. The client care letter is a very important document. It contains a description of the work to be undertaken, the basis on which you will be charged for that work, and the other terms of the agreement between you and the barrister.
In some cases the barrister may suggest that you have a preliminary meeting before deciding whether or not to proceed with the instructions.
Chambers is pleased to offer this service to the public in a wide variety of areas and chambers clerks will be pleased to provide further information in specific cases.
