Per Schedule 3 of the Legal Services Act, unregistered legal professionals can offer case management services and advocacy services when supervised by a regulated and authorised person.
Traditionally a useful source of advocacy experience for keen young barristers seeking pupillage, County Court Advocacy is increasingly seen as a viable business model for solicitors looking to offer their lay clients cost-effective in-house alternatives to instructing Counsel on work where the exemption can apply. The scheme generates revenue for the instructed litigator and saves money for the client.
Temple Legal Services is able to offer solicitors wishing to build a County Court Advocacy offering the resources which they may not have in-house, including access to quality and experienced advocates willing to use their expertise under the umbrella of the supervising law firm.
