How to find a barrister?

OP where did you accrue all of this court experience? You are taking cases (in the plural) so I was just wondering how many times you’ve argued with your lawyer(s)

Do you want to keep this thread open? Are you likely to find the answer to your original question? Can you handle the truth?

I found my answer a long time back. This thread is now purely about how I deal with legal cases, so it no longer serves any purpose, so I'm happy for it to be closed before things turn really nasty.

Court 6 times, settled before court well many times. I have read the relevant acts in every case and argued in everyone with the lawyer over how to handle them.
 
I'm unsure if I should buy more popcorn or bullshit spray.

;)

I test different professions in different ways, but I always test, especially when big money is involved. I’m not going to say the cost involved as I’m sure you can imagine, but for the sums involved dam right I “kick the tyres” before hiring. As said the answer isn’t important only how they answer.

A list of cases/qualifications tells me nothing about the person, all barristers are qualified and specialise in different areas of law, all will have case history, so I need a way to see if we can work together, It’s not guaranteed but it gives me a guide on the person.

If they had said money for example I would have hired at once, equally refused to answer would have been fine as both answers are a risk to a potential new client.

There not doing the work for free or out of kindness, so it has nothing to do with tv dramas or the likes, why should hiring a barrister be any different from hiring a builder? I ask questions of a builder/accountant/lawyer so why would I treat a barrister differently.

Surely you don’t think I should bob my head, remove my cap etc in there presence! There just people after work like everyone else.

I like to take risks in court, I like to be very hands on in cases by reading the legal acts and very involved with the directions taken, over ruling my solicitor is common for me, so any barrister must be up for the same or it won’t work. So in that you are right it is also a test for them in regards me. If they don’t like that question then they won’t like me saying no think again

can I ask what you call big money?

At least 10k, if it goes to trail then closure to 20k. Then add in all your other costs... I’m working on conservative costs of around 35 to 40k all in at the moment assuming there is no appeal
 
Im aware of what Barristers charge I meant the potential value of any settlement.

Some time ago you changed your UN as an aide memoir amongst other reasons to think about how and what you post.

I recommend you think on.
 
I very much am. This thread serves no purpose other than to insight trouble.

Any figure mentioned would lead to nature of claim which would fire everything up again, especially given some statements already made which I simply referred back to in my post.

Close the thread as already offered and it stops the matter going further and risk of anyone (including myself) crossing the line as a result.
