King’s Counsel Appointments: Guidance Videos for Applicants and Assessors

As someone who has recently signed up to a KC outreach event, provided an assessment, or has otherwise been involved in the Silk process, we wanted to draw your attention to a series of guidance videos now available on our website:

King's Counsel Appointments | Excellence in Advocacy.

These videos supplement the wealth of existing guidance already available and cover:

Guidance for Assessors
Preparing for a Silk application
Overview of the KC process
Addressing Common Misconceptions of the KC process
Interview Guidance
Guidance for Solicitor Advocates
Silk and pro bono

A final video focussed on employed barristers who may be considering a KC application, will be available shortly.

We hope you find this guidance useful as you prepare to apply for Silk or to provide an assessment(s) for an applicant.
