Our "one-stop" court guides are designed to help lawyers and court users navigate their way to and around unknown court buildings in unfamiliar towns across England & Wales

One-stop court guides

As junior barristers we have dragged our trolleys along inhospitable terrain trying to find many a court…only to find ourselves with no case papers, insufficient funds to pay unexpected charges to receive them at court by fax, and no clue where the nearest cashpoint was.

Our solution?

One-stop court guides, which include directions to the court, tips on court usage and the availability of advocate rooms, taxi and cashpoint details, as well as lunch and leisure updates.

We have visited all the courts listed in this supplement to root out and verify the information included, but do let us know if any of the details need to be updated.

The courts...so far
