Sets introduce contracts to ensure firms pay up

Comment

Contracts betweeen barristers and solicitors (or lay clients) are long overdue. The current anachronistic arrangement leaves the Bar without any simple or effective way of recovering unpaid fees, and is not the best PR for a profession which has claimed to be modernising as long as I have been in it, but is still seen by the public as being old-fashioned.
