Search for counsel more efficiently

BriefNet is a technology service built for the moments solicitors need to find a barrister more efficiently — a returned brief, a diary clash, a hearing listed at short notice or a new area of work. Post the headline details of your instruction and vetted chambers tender available counsel, so you can compare options and select with confidence.

BriefNet cuts down the time spent waiting for a reply from chambers and the frustration of having to make multiple calls or of having to send out the same request multiple times until available counsel is found. It also provides far greater choice – post to multiple chambers and make an informed choice.

Clerks use BriefNet to fill diary gaps and offer last-minute counsel to firms outside their usual network. New streams of work can be developed, new relationships with solicitors, broadening the pool of available work and increasing revenue.

Covering criminal, civil, family and tribunal work across England and Wales — free for both solicitors and chambers.
