Commercial & Business: common questions

Can my business instruct a barrister directly?

Yes. Businesses commonly use direct access to get specialist commercial advice and advocacy.

We have a shareholder dispute. Can you advise?

A barrister can advise on your rights, the available remedies and the most efficient route to resolve it.

Is direct access cheaper for businesses?

It can be, because you pay for specialist input directly rather than through a managed file.
