About Us

Why have anyone else when you can have a Barrister from the start?

ADL Barristers was set up as a direct alternative to clients having to instruct Barristers through Solicitors or legal representative. Historically it has been the case that to have a Barrister you needed to go through a Solicitor or a legal representative, that changed with the introduction of Direct Access . ADL Barristers are authorised to act on a Direct Access basis and have the authorisation to conduct litigation which means that we can act in to act in a similar way to a Solicitor or a legal representative without having to rely upon them. The advantage of coming directly is that the costs are likely to be less and more importantly you will have access to the person who will be presenting your case from the very start. You will be informed as to the merits of the case from the outset and if we believe your case lacks merit, we will advise you. This is a barrister led service which is available directly to members of the public, where the members of public do not have to wait to see a Barrister.
