Inquests: common questions
Can a barrister represent my family at an inquest?
Yes. A direct access barrister can prepare you, question witnesses and make submissions to the coroner.
Do we need representation at an inquest?
It is not compulsory, but representation helps where other parties (such as a hospital or employer) have lawyers.
What is an Article 2 inquest?
A wider inquiry held where the state may bear responsibility for a death. A barrister can advise if it applies.
