Policies that reflect how your chambers actually works, written by barristers who know the Bar.
Chambers are required to have specific and up-to-date policies in place. When the BSB asks, a complaint arrives, or an EDI review is triggered, generic policies often don't hold up under scrutiny. We help chambers review their current position and draft policies that are accurate, practical, and specific to how your chambers operates.
Outdated policies create risk for both the chambers and the individuals it protects.
Policies that haven't kept pace with legislation or BSB expectations
Generic corporate templates that don't account for how chambers operate
Policies on paper that nobody actually follows or even knows about
No review schedule, so the same problem recurs in three years
What Briefed's service covers.
Policy review and gap identification
We review your existing policies against current legislation, BSB requirements, and what we've seen working across 150+ chambers.
Policy drafting
Written from scratch where needed. Bar-specific, practical, and drafted especially for members and staff, not adapted from a corporate template.
Implementation support
We stay with you through sign-off and implementation, with tracked changes and guidance on embedding policies in day-to-day practice.
Review scheduling
We build a chambers-wide policy review calendar, so you know when each policy is due for review and compliance doesn't drift.
Policy areas we cover.
The process is designed around your capacity.
Review and scope
We review what you have and agree which areas to prioritise first.
Briefed drafts
We produce updated or new policies with tracked changes.
Chambers approves
You review, feed back, sign off. We make revisions.
Implement and repeat
Policies go live. We move to next priority area.
We stay with you through implementation to ensure your policies are embedded into chambers' practice. Policies that sit in a folder don't meet BSB expectation.
