About
8118 Law provides legal advice and representation in criminal, civil, family and children law. Regulated by the Bar Standards Board and based in London, instructions are accepted to represent clients in any court across England and Wales.
Direct Access Barrister
The public access scheme allows approved barristers to receive instructions directly from members of the public without the need for a solicitor. This can lead to significant cost savings, avoid potential delays, and ensure direct communication with the person who will be representing you in court.
Authorised to Conduct Litigation
Conducting litigation includes starting proceedings, issuing claims and filing applications and other documents at court. This is a function usually associated with the role of solicitors but is a service offered here. This means that cases can be handled from start to finish, including all pre-trial preparation and representation at court. You will have a single point of contact throughout the entire court process.
Family Law and Children
Instructions are accepted in cases ranging from domestic violence and private child contact disputes to serious child abuse and cases of international relocation and child abduction. Instructions are also accepted in divorce and matrimonial finance, and applications under Schedule 1 of the Children Act 1989.
Civil and Commercial Law
Instructions are accepted in tort and contract claims, contested probate, trust law and property ownership disputes, landlord and tenant matters and boundary disputes.
Criminal Law
Instructions include criminal defence and private prosecutions, road traffic offences and appeals to either the Crown Court or the Court of Appeal.
