Transparency Rules

 All our Barristers are regulated by the Bar Standards Board (“the BSB”). 

The BSB brought new transparency rules into force as of 1 July 2019, following the Competition and Markets Authority’s (CMA’s) recommendation in December 2016 that the legal regulators deliver a step change in transparency standards to help consumers understand the price and service they will receive, what redress is available and the regulatory status of their provider.

The mandatory rules state that we must:

State that professional, licensed access and/or lay clients (as appropriate) may contact us to obtain a quotation for legal services

 You can contact us in chambers to obtain a quote.

Provide contact details.

                 You can contact us at clerks@9parkplace.co.uk or telephone us on 02920382731 or write to us at 9 Park Place, Cardiff, CF10 3DP.

 State chambers’ most commonly used pricing models for legal services. 

 At 9 Park Place this is usually a fixed fee or hourly rate, depending on the nature of your enquiry.  Please contact our clerks to find out more.

 

State the areas of practice and provide a description of chambers’ most commonly provides legal services.

 

 You can find our practice areas and a description of exactly the services we provide on our home pages at www.9parkplace.co.uk.

 

Provide information about the factors which might influence the timescales of chambers’ most commonly provided legal services.

 

  When our barristers are instructed to provide advisory work, their clerk will usually agree a timescale at the same time the fee is agreed and will keep you informed if that changes for any reason, for example, this could be due to the client not providing timely and complete instructions; illness; or urgent court work on another matter;

 When our barristers are instructed to provide services regarding litigation - timescales will usually depend on similar factors mentioned with regard to advisory work, plus response times of the court; the opponent; and any other third parties directly involved in the litigation, such as expert witnesses for example.
