Terms and Conditions

Members and pupil barristers of Fenners Chambers accept instructions from their instructing solicitors, and other authorised persons whose regulator is the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority, on the Standard Contractual Terms for the Supply of Legal Services by Barristers to Authorised Persons 2012 (updated for the GDPR in 2018), with the additional term.

The additional term is that the barrister’s total liability (for loss or damage of any kind including interest and costs) is limited to the amount of their professional indemnity insurance cover at the date of starting to carry out the instructions. In the case of pupil barristers, the applicable limit is that of their pupil supervisor’s indemnity cover. Barristers are required by the BSB Handbook to ensure that they have adequate insurance (taking into account the nature of their practice). We are happy to discuss any circumstances which make such a limitation inappropriate in any given case.
