Today Family Barristers can do everything a Family Solicitor can do (with one or two small exceptions)
Why would I use a Barrister rather than a Solicitor ?In most divorce and family cases what the client wants is -
• Expert Advice in Plain English about what is likely to happen
• Effective Negotiation that focuses on the objective rather than the paperwork
• Skilled Representation at Court or other Dispute Resolution Hearings
Family Barristers are specialists in these areas - so why wouldn’t you want to use a Barrister ?
