How to

instruct us.

Instructing members of Chambers is arranged via the clerks. The clerking team, led by senior clerk David Foreman, are happy to assist in answering any questions in relation to instructions or potential instructions. The clerks’ room can be contacted by telephone (+44 20 4534 7396) or email (clerks@12rsc.com).

Members of Chambers accept instructions from any of the following:-

  • Solicitors
  • Other authorised litigators
  • Parliamentary agents, patent attorneys, trademark attorneys and notaries
  • European lawyers registered with the Law Society
  • Employed barristers and/or employed European Lawyers registered with the Bar Council
  • Legal Advice Centres designated by the Bar Council
  • Licensed conveyancers (in matters in which they are providing conveyancing services)
  • Foreign lawyers

Members of Chambers welcome instructions from many professions and bodies who are entitled to instruct barristers under the “Licensed Access” arrangements. More information about this, including the lists of qualifying professional bodies and organisations can be found on the Bar Standards Board website.

Further information on instructing a barrister generally can be found on the Bar Council website.

Members of Chambers who have been approved by the Bar Standards Board to accept work under the Public Access Scheme can be instructed without the need to retain a solicitor. Information about who has been approved by the Bar Council can be obtained from the clerks. The terms on which barristers are able to accept instructions under the Public Access Scheme can be found on the Bar Standards Board website here.

The work in Chambers is not limited to the Courts of England and Wales and domestic tribunals. Many members of 12 Regent Street Chambers' are experienced in working with lawyers and clients in different jurisdictions.
