Members of the public can now instruct a barrister without going through a solicitor ("direct access"). This can sometimes mean that it works out cheaper if all you need is for a barrister to carry out advocacy or advisory work, or to give you a steer as to how to litigate your case. Thom is qualified to accept direct access instructions and is also authorised to conduct litigation.
In some cases, a solicitor will still be necessary, but it may well be significantly cheaper for you to instruct a barrister directly.
Thom accepts direct access instructions from members of the public in all of his practice areas. To enquire about instructing Thom in a direct access case, please contact the clerks at Deka Chambers, or fill out the form below.
