Direct Access Barrister recommendation - Bristol or London

[sunshinyholidays2024]

Hi, can anyone recommend a good direct access barrister in London or Bristol. Conversant in post-separation domestic abuse and child arrangements, particularly to challenge a section 7 report? Thank you

Try David Merrigan, Dr Charlotte Proudman or Nick Wilkinson

@Helpyu Thank you, any info on which chambers, area of specialism, or have you used them?

@TheFireflies Thank you, any info on which chambers, area of specialism, or have you used them? Many thanks

@sunshinyholidays2024 im not entirely sure re chambers though you can look up names on Google and likely you will see their chambers. I think they are all London based. I haven’t used any (yet) but in a similar boat to you and all the ones I’ve recommended have been mentioned by more than one person to me. Dr proudman in particular has quite a strong media presence. Nick Wilkinson is very well known, acted for Princess Haya in her divorce

Why don’t you try specific family law chambers and ask the clerks who has availability? 4 Paper Buildings has a very good reputation as does 1 Garden Court

Thank you.
