We needed to seek advice on a matter concerning a CIL payment and within a matter of an hour or so, Christopher Cant, Barrister, afforded me a very helpful response within this short timeframe, and at a very affordable price.

You cannot ask more than this and we were very grateful for this level of excellent service.

A couple of years ago I instructed Ravi Sethi as my barrister through Barristerconnect for a final 2 day hearing. His professionalism, caring nature, compassion and expertise made a real difference in this case and helped me to win the case.

Fast forward 2 years, and I needed to instruct a barrister once again for a final 2 day hearing. So instantly my first thoughts were to use Ravi Sethi once again. Luckily for me he was available for the 2 days in which i needed him for.
Once again he was absolutely outstanding and an absolute credit to his line of work. He won the case for me once again.
I cant thank Ravi Sethi enough for helping me through what has been the toughest time of my life, not once but twice, and helping me get through the otherside with the absolute best outcome.

So if anyone is looking for an outstanding very knowledgeable and professional Barrister. Then look no further and instruct Ravi Sethi through Barrister connect.

Stand out service from both the admin/support team and the Barrister himself, Mr Paul O'Callaghan. Smooth, slick, friendly, quality advice and lightning fast responses. Refreshingly excellent and highly recommended. Thank you.

Dear Rebecca ,

I wanted to express my deepest gratitude for the tremendous guidance, expertise, and leadership you provided at yesterday’s hearing. Your preparation, clarity of thought, and calm handling of the issues made an enormous difference, not only in the progress of the case but also in helping me stay focused during what could have been an overwhelming situation.

I am truly grateful for the care and diligence you have shown throughout. It is clear that your insights and strategic decisions have significantly strengthened the presentation of my case and, most importantly, helped ensure that my child’s welfare remains at the centre of these proceedings.

Thank you again for your professionalism, your patience, and your exceptional advocacy. I feel very fortunate to have you representing me.

Kind regards,

William Asante

Very efficient service, great communication and even more positive is that we won the case. Would thoroughly recommend the service A++

“Michael Barrow has acted on two separate occasions for the business and director of the company.
His knowledgeable and honest approach to our matters has been exemplary. At all times & in all matters we have had total success with our injunctions and outcome at final hearings.
A very friendly and polite advocate but with the experience of instinct and knowledge of advice you can trust and should trust. He will not advise or allow cases that can be questionable to be lost escalate.
Michael always tries to mitigate your expense if he does not believe there is a real prospect of success.
If you want a no-nonsense barrister to represent you in court, a man you can trust and rely on, Michael Barrow should be your barrister.
We would highly recommend him”

Stephanie Heijdra she was amazing very confident had read through all case documents and was fully prepared . Todays hearing had a better outcome
Than i had expected . Would highly recommend Stephanie.

Initially, after going it alone and starting an early conciliation claim with ACAS and a subsequent discrimination claim with the employment tribunal (as a litigant in person), it wasn’t long before I realised I was in over my head. Paul O’Callaghan’s advice and his expertise in detailed employment law helped turn my case around. Whilst I was already aware that the Respondent was a large multinational company with a strong foothold in the UK. It wasn’t until after Paul had negotiated a satisfactory settlement, that I discovered quite how big a company the respondent’s lawyers were. Anybody that takes on a global law firm of that size, requires not only the legal and technical skills to succeed but also have unwavering courage and strength of character. Paul O’Callaghan has all of that. In the end, it was his negotiating skills and conciliatory approach that saved the day. I would not hesitate in recommending him to others for complex employment and discrimination cases.

Mr Nick Wright at Barristerconnect had a clear and concise plan for approaching our issue and moving it forward to a conclusion that we are sure we will be happy with the outcome.
I would highly recommend his professional services

I gave clerksroom direct (now barrister connect) over £8,000 upfront, £4,500 to defend me in magistrate court and a further £3,546 to conduct a juditial review, In court the barrister told me to plead guilty stating it was a hostile bench, so a large fine a criminal record and no judial review, clerksroom direct asked for more money to take the planning inspectorate to court ,clerksroom direct have not replied to my request for a refund or returned some of the original paperwork i sent them . I would urge any one to read their one star reviews before giving them original papers or money upfront which you will need if you go elswhere. I suspect the barrister only got a fraction of the money i paid to clerksroom direct, the case is ongoing.

Stassi was amazing, she was very quick to pair me with a barrister and also quickly found an extra choice for me. It was such a relief to deal with Barristerconnect when I was struggling with direct access.

After receiving an opinion from Irwin Mitchell under my insurance policy, they disregarded all of my claims and did not look at any of the evidence properly. They delayed the process at every turn and allocated me to a junior solicitor with 3 months PQE whose opinion was poorly drafted and did not interpret the law correctly. I wanted to get a second opinion as I knew my claims enjoyed good prospects of success - IM were completely unreliable.

I approached Barrister Connect about my complex employment matter and they paired me with
Paul O'Callaghan. Paul was brilliant. Firstly his grasp of the facts and ability to distil a very complicated situation into a clear, strategic plan was exceptional. He looked at everything I provided, and absolutely nothing was missed.

Paul was direct, analytical, and pragmatic throughout — cutting through unnecessary noise and identifying the strongest legal points with precision. His written advice was comprehensive yet easy to follow, with practical next steps tailored to my circumstances. He also showed genuine empathy and professionalism in how he handled a very sensitive situation, which made an enormous difference to my confidence moving forward. He was able to have a call with me discuss the matter days after instruction, with a written advice promised within a week (though this was actually given to me in 24 hours which was most appreciated!) After providing me with the advice we had a further call to discuss. The approach by Paul is very collaborative. This is a very different experience to a solicitor who will be more 'check box' and cold in their approach.

If you’re dealing with a serious employment issue and want someone who combines technical excellence with sound judgment and integrity, I can’t recommend Paul highly enough. Paul kindly offered advice on the tribunal process in addition to advising me on my claims. I must also point out that Paul also acts predominantly for claimants (75%). For anyone who has any serious employment issue, please take my advice and seek the opinion of a barrister - they are the ones who actually attend court. Most employment solicitors never see an employment tribunal.

Was assigned Nick Wright, a highly experienced Barrister both hard working, responsive, practical, thoughtful and personable. The use of Barristerconnect vs using a Solicitor from my analyse saves both time and money if you're able to do some of the work yourself. Nick is supportive and extremely experienced in his area so highly efficient.

I reached out to Barrister Connect for support with a small claims matter and was assigned Nick Wright. From the start, Nick carefully reviewed my situation and provided clear, practical recommendations that differed from what I’d previously been advised. Although I was initially unsure, his confidence and attention to detail quickly put me at ease.

The day before the hearing, Nick guided me on how to best prepare, and on the day itself, he helped position the case effectively. Thanks to his expertise and persistence, the outcome was far better than I expected. I’m very grateful for his support and highly recommend him and the Barrister Connect team.

Dear Andrew,



I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to extend my heartfelt gratitude and provide a glowing review of the exceptional legal services you provided during our recent dilapidation claim.



As you know, this claim arose after we purchased a property where the previous tenant had failed to comply with their contractual obligations to restore the building to its original good repair. With the defendants being notably slow to respond at every turn, the entire matter stretched over an arduous 24 months. Despite these challenges, your expertise and dedication stood out impressively.



Your superb handling of the case was nothing short of remarkable. Your strategic approach, clear communication, and unwavering commitment were instrumental in navigating the complexities of this long-drawn process. Your professionalism and tenacity ensured that our interests were thoroughly protected and advocated for at every stage.



In light of this experience, I cannot recommend a better legal representative than yourself. Your outstanding service has left an indelible mark, and I am truly grateful for your support and diligence throughout this challenging period.



Thank you once again, Andrew, for your exemplary work and dedication.



Warm regards,

Carol Sullivan

I was asked to change my review. So we just keep it factual i was set up my two people first the operator then the Barrister. Sch teacher was assaulted, Barristered profile claims to know health and safety once talking to HIM it didnt have a clue just sat and look end the cool after 30mins beware of fix rate dont do it. Use AI before this company I promise you.

It seems as if I am not the only person to have a terrible experience with Barristers Connect and Nick Wright. It is almost an identical situation to V.B. below. I paid £300 for an hour and only received 30 mins, partly because the barrister was so objectionable that I didn't really want to talk to him any more. In any case, he made me feel like he was in a hurry and came across as impatient and arrogant.

Just like V.B. below he told me he was on holiday the next week so he wasn't actually going to be available to appear in court if necessary.

I did complain but, it feels a bit of a stitch up because the reviewer decided that the services were reasonable!

Now that I have seen another very similar complaint, I will be complaining to the Ombudsman.

Got the desired result

Do not use Barrister Connect if you are in need of legal advice.

I needed a couple of questions answered and found Barrister Connect online a company based in Taunton that offers legal advice paid for by the hour.

I paid £360 for an hour of advice with a barrister regarding a tenancy issue.

The first barrister they assigned- Majed Walker did not get back too me.

I was appointed another barrister Nick Wright who was less helpful in the sense that he was very and dismissive on the phone and told me nothing in the fifteen minutes that I didn’t know already, He sounded like he was in a hurry and said I should email him if I had any more questions. I had paid him
for an hour.

He suggested after fifteen minutes that I email him with any queries. I called him the next day and he was equally as abrupt telling my he 'was on holiday' that was a lie because he already told me he was too busy to attend a mediation with me that week as he was in court on that day.

I have never felt so disappointed and annoyed with a professional before. I desperately needed some questions answered and on both occasions was fobbed off by Nick Wright.

When I requested a refund of my payment of £360 from Barristers Connect they refused and were equally as dismissive,

All I can say is do not use Barristers Connect if you do not want to loose your money.
