Public Access
Barristers at 4 King's Bench Walk accept public access instructions from company and commercial clients and governmental and non-governmental organisations. Instructions are accepted from individuals in relation to disciplinary and sporting tribunals and coroner's court inquests.
The potential benefits of Public Access to the consumer are now being recognised by many organisations and business people, as well as by members of the general public. Users of the scheme report that barristers instructed directly are approachable and deliver a high quality service. In the right circumstances a Public Access barrister can represent a client in court. Naturally, those who go directly to a barrister have more control over their case, and very often save money.
The client says
“We needed to act very quickly and Public Access gave speedy access to high quality expertise. Initial meetings were extremely productive and advice concise and immediate. We appreciated the early access to our barrister andcommunication from him was clear and constructive. We feel we saved both time and expense associated with more traditional route via solicitors and were all very happy with the service and obviously the outcome.”
