Ethical Enquiries Service

  The Bar Council provides a confidential assistance line for practising members of the Bar with pressing queries about the Code of Conduct. The Bar Council has a team of staff who are trained to handle ethical enquiries. Members of the team can be reached through the Ethical Queries Helpline: +44 (0)20 7611 1307.

• Bar Representation Fee

  For less than £8.40 a month, or a cup of coffee each week, you can fund the Bar Council's vital work in representing the Bar's interests and promoting and supporting fair access to and the administration of justice. All of the funds raised from the BRF are used exclusively for this work.

• Professional Practice and Ethics

  The Bar Council has published many documents in its professional practice & ethics A-Z database to assist barristers on matters of professional conduct and ethics.
