Co-op prepares to access 'every court in the land' with new bar panel

Co-operative Legal Services (CLS), the largest company to be granted an ABS licence, has created a roster of barristers chambers that it will use for family work after launching a fixed-fee service last month (20 September 2012).

CLS has awarded contracts to five sets across the country that have agreed fixed-fee deals with the company.

Manchester-headquartered St John’s Buildings and Nottingham-based St Mary’s Chambers have been instructed in the north, while 3 Paper Buildings has picked up the remit for Bristol and London alongside 4 Paper Buildings and 14 Gray’s Inn in London.
