The Bar Council have now introduced new public Access Rules to qualified barristers. Barristers are now in a position to provide their services directly to the public. This is known at the Direct Public Access Scheme. The Public Access scheme allows lay clients to instruct barristers without the need to use a solicitor as an intermediary.

Under the new Bar Council Rules, any individuals or professionals or businesses can now directly instruct Barrister Anis Rahman, an experienced and qualified Direct Public Access Barrister. The scheme represents savings for clients and companies who do not require a solicitor in the first place. It is now possible to resolve an issue directly with the expert help of a barrister and without incurring the cost of a solicitor therefore making savings.

The Direct Public Access scheme is suitable to any members of the public, expatriates, professionals, companies, small and medium-sized businesses, members of trade associations and charitable and non profit organisations.
