Standing up to the Clerks
"Who is in charge at a Barrister's Chambers? The barristers or the clerks?
Certainly, when I was a pupil, and later a junior barrister – the answer was
"the clerks". It certainly wasn't me. On one memorable occasion, presented with
a complex brief in an area of law I knew nothing about, for a miserable brief
fee – I stood my ground and said – "no more of this please". After two weeks of
little or no work I had learned my lesson, and knuckled down to do what I was
told without further complaint." By Alex Williams.
