Mercantile Barristers London

We are Specialist Consultants in Law

When legal issues are complex, intricate, and so important that the most seasoned expert in advice and handling is required, our specialist legal consultants can help.

Usually, a commercial barrister can be traditionally seen as “stuffy” and “unapproachable” but at Mercantile Barristers, we are modernising legal tradition by refusing to be anything of the kind.

Our team of London based Direct Access barristers are down-to-earth, practical legal experts who offer clients across the UK complete control of their cases without relying on a solicitor.

Why Choose Us

Our Direct Access Barristers

Multifaceted & Interdisciplinary

Our barristers in London are cross qualified so you don’t have to go from one solicitor’s office on the High Street to barristers’ chambers at the Inns of Court.

Excellent Value

A barrister usually has lower overheads, so this will usually be more economical than retaining the solicitor alone and will cost less than instructing both.

Maximum Efficiency

You get the earliest possible direct access to the specialist – not just when a problem gets to Court. This could save you the headache, heartache and expense of avoidable litigation.

Full Transparency

You will normally know in advance the basis upon which the work will be charged, as well as your advisors view on likely prospects of success.

I was nervous about contacting a Barrister this way but I have to say, the experience with Mercantile was quick, efficient and outstanding. I would definitely recommend them and they gave me the confidence to pursue my case. Many thanks to all.

Samuel Okoronkwo met with me and explained all of my legal rights related to the purchase of an asset and was extremely thorough and professional. In addition to being extremely professional and skilled in all areas of law, Samuel is very personable. I highly recommend Mercantile Barristers for any legal advice that you might have.
