Counsel magazine

Launched in 1985, Counsel is the monthly journal of the Bar of England and Wales. As the Bar's own magazine, it is largely written by and for barristers, as well as featuring items of relevance to all lawyers and anyone with an interest in the law.

A monthly subscription to Counsel magazine (standard price £167) is an exclusive benefit of the Bar Representation Fee (BRF).

As an effective campaigning voice, Counsel covers the key issues facing the Bar and the legal system in addition to profiles, conference reports, personal finance, chambers' announcements and more.

A distinguished editorial board, mainly drawn from the ranks of practising barristers, works closely with the editorial team to produce a vibrant monthly magazine. It is made up of barristers representing a wide cross-section of the Bar and is not part of the Bar Council's committee structure.
