Learn moreThe challenge
Most chambers are already managing compliance. The question is how well.
Many sets are already managing compliance as best they can. But the landscape keeps shifting, and it's hard to stay confident that everything's in order.
Policies exist but haven't kept pace with legislation and regulation
Training is happening periodically, but nobody's quite sure it's evidenced properly
Risks are understood informally but not prioritised or documented
Regulatory change lands and there is uncertainty around what action it requires
Compliance managed by various individuals who have many other competing priorities

Why Briefed
What makes us different
We are dedicated in-house barristers
Our barristers are in-house compliance specialists, who work alongside barristers and chambers every day. Our compliance services are built on their expertise, which comes directly from experience of practising at the Bar.
BSB-accredited Public Access training
We are the only training provider to chambers to achieve this accreditation for on-demand training. Our Public Access Training for Barristers has been developed to ensure busy barristers can access and complete it in their own time.
Same-day expert advice
When a data breach happens or a complaint arrives, chambers can reach an in-house barrister. With years of expertise guiding chambers on compliance issues, we are best placed to support you and your chambers with any issues or queries that arise.
100% LOCS:23 certification success rate
Over 80% of certified organisations under the ICO-approved LOCS:23 standard were guided there by Briefed. We are a LOCS:23 specialist with a track record no other provider can match.
Updated when the law or regulation changes
Because our barristers are already advising chambers on new requirements, our training and policies are updated as and when regulations change.
No minimum spend, no lock-in
Start with a single course or a full compliance audit. There is no minimum contract and no commitment beyond what you or your chambers needs right now.
