Racheal Muldoon may accept instructions from lay clients under the Public Access scheme, where the matter is suitable and she is authorised to do so. Public Access enables a client to instruct a barrister directly, without first instructing a solicitor, in appropriate cases.

Whether a matter is suitable for Public Access will depend on its nature, complexity, procedural stage, and whether it is in the client’s interests for a solicitor to be instructed. If a matter is unsuitable for Public Access, that will be explained as early as possible.

The Bar Standards Board’s Public Access Guidance for Lay Clients can be found here:

If Racheal Muldoon provides any of the specified Public Access services subject to additional transparency requirements, indicative fees, likely stages of work, likely disbursements and indicative timescales will be published on this page.
