What BriefNet is
BriefNet supports the existing solicitor - clerk relationship. Whether searching for last minute cover, or filling an unexpected gap in the diary, BriefNet facilitates the process.

- Vetted chambers see the brief and tender counsel.
- The solicitor compares tenders and selects.
- Carry on as normal, BriefNet simply makes the connection, more efficiently
Cost
