We aim to make the process of instructing us simple, with a straight-forward, user-friendly approach designed to ensure that clients receive the standard of service they require. We understand the need to be flexible and to work together as a team to provide practical solutions. Our clerks will help our clients to find the barrister best suited to their needs.

Our clerks adopt the same approach when discussing fees and are always willing to provide estimates of fees and a timetable for completing work.

We accept instructions from the following:

• Solicitors, other authorised litigators, employed barristers and legal advice centres in England & Wales;
• European lawyers registered with the Law Society, and lawyers, professionals and individuals from other jurisdictions;
• Licensed professionals in the UK under the Licensed Access scheme;
• Members of the public under the Public Access scheme

If you would like to instruct one of our barristers, then please contact the clerks. 

England & Wales
The expertise of New Square Chambers covers a wide range of chancery and commercial areas of law. (Please click here to view our areas of practice in England & Wales and other jurisdictions.)

This website contains extensive information on Chambers’ and individual barristers’ expertise, but please do not hesitate to contact the clerks for further information.

Other Jurisdictions
Barristers at New Square Chambers accept instructions from a wide variety of other jurisdictions.  A large number of barristers in chambers have knowledge and experience of foreign jurisdictions with links to English law, and some appear regularly in such jurisdictions.  Further details can be obtained by contacting our clerks. 

Licensed Access
Under the Licensed Access scheme (formerly 'Direct Professional Access'), barristers at New Square Chambers accept instructions from professional individuals and organisations licensed by the Bar Council.  Guidance on the scheme and a list of licensees can be found on the Bar Council website. 

Public Access
Under the Public Access scheme, suitably qualified members of New Square Chambers are, in appropriate cases, able to take instructions direct from members of the public, commercial and non-commercial organisations. 

Guidance and a list of members able to undertake work in this way are available from the Bar Council. 

Our clerks are always willing to guide members of the public as to an appropriate barrister and the operation of the scheme.
