The Direct Public Access Scheme with Right to Conduct Litigation
Members
of
the
public
may
retain
and
instruct
a
barrister
directly
through
the
Bar’s
Public
Access
Scheme
without
having
to
involve
an
instructing
solicitor.
Previously,
clients
were
required
to
use
a
solicitor
or
other
professional
adviser
in
order
to
instruct
a
barrister.
Under
the
Bar’s
Public
Access
Scheme,
the
barrister’s
role
remains
basically
the
same,
except
members
of
the
public,
businesses
and
other
organisations
may
directly
instruct
a
barrister.
Additionally,
specifically
qualified
barristers
now
have
the
right
to
conduct
litigation.
Benefits of Direct Public Access
•
Barristers
are
trained
specialist
legal
advisers
and
advocates.
You
gain
direct
access
to
these
trained
advisers
and
advocates
at
a
time
of
your
choice,
not
after
a
problem
gets to court.
•
You
will
have
to
consult
and
pay
only
one
legal
adviser
rather
than
two,
which
may
result in more control over your own case and considerable cost savings.
•
You
will
normally
know
in
advance
the
basis
on
which
you
will
be
charged,
often
on
a
fixed fee basis, and an estimate of the anticipated costs.
