Barristers' Council

The Barristers' Council is a regulatory body responsible for overseeing the conduct, standards, and licensing of barristers—lawyers who specialize in courtroom advocacy and legal advice. It ensures that barristers maintain professional integrity and compliance with legal standards, often providing guidelines, discipline processes, and support for ongoing professional development. By regulating the profession, the Council helps uphold public confidence in legal services and ensures that practitioners meet established qualifications and ethical requirements.
