Provided by Complete Counsel

Established in 2014, when it became clear that there were better opportunities for specialist counsel with focussed support, Complete Counsel is not a traditional set.It is a bespoke business supplying services on a contractual basis to barristers.The services offered include practice development, diary management and fee collection.


Barristers can engage with Complete Counsel either as sole practitioners or as members of existing chambers.Complete Counsel also provides services to barristers' chambers on an outsource basis.


Complete Counsel is managed by an experienced team of former bar clerks with specialised expertise in all aspects of the services offered.Billing is in accordance with an agreed percentage reflecting the extent of services provided.It is possible to engage with Complete Counsel in an unbundled way such as practice development or fee collection only.There is no financial commitment beyond the agreed percentage charged on fees when collected. Barristers operating this way are also spared chambers politics.


Complete Counsel provides services and support to barristers who practise in a range of disciplines, to include personal injury, family, immigration, employment and tax.However, at this stage the "set" is best known for its clinical negligence and inquest team of Charles Feeny, Ana Samuel and Charles Austin, all of whom are separately ranked in Chambers Directory.


Charles Feeny has been a leading practitioner for over two decades. His practice for both claimants and defendants reflects his experience of instruction in leading cases and cutting-edge litigation.

Ana Samuel has a strong practice in clinical negligence and inquests. She is regularly instructed in high profile inquest by families, NHS Trusts, the Government, and insurers. She has acted as Counsel to the Inquest. She sits as an Assistant Coroner and is a member of the Law Review Committee of the Coroner’s Society.

Charles Austin is an established clinical negligence practitioner. He has a national practice which includes work for both claimants and defendants. Charles works on cases from inception right through to trial. He is regularly instructed on cases in excess of £1million. Charles is also instructed on inquests on behalf of families and healthcare providers.


Appreciating that clinical negligence is a specialist market, the team at Complete Counsel also engage with Pro-Vide Law, our education arm which provides training and on specific issues in conjunction with leading expert witnesses and academics.The recent webinar series by Pro-Vide Law has received warm praise from viewers all over the country.
