Find a barrister

There are a number of resources available to help you to find a barrister.

Bar Directory

The official  Bar Directory is provided by Sweet and Maxwell, and is widely used by the legal profession.

Mediation Directory

Mediation is a growing field, and many barristers are trained to provide this service. You can search the  Mediation Directory to find an individual to assist in resolving your dispute.

Direct Access Portal

Many barristers now accept direct instruction from members of the public or companies without requiring instruction from a solicitor. 

The Bar Council recently entered into a new partnership with two barristers to launch a new Direct Access Portal (DAP)  website. The Portal provides details of all barristers who undertake work in this manner, who are appropriately qualified and have paid the Bar Representation Fee.
