Why don't you retrain as a barrister then, and stick up for all the little people?0

It will never work , money makes the world go round , good barristers. are earning several million a year.Good barristers are equivalent of top professional footballers , once you become known your price rockets .
To be a great barrister , you need to be a psychologist first ,then a boxer and finally a barrister.Top barristers need all three skills .
One of main the reasons why Sir Alec Ferguson was successful ,he was a psychologist .
Most of these car accident barristers are not up to a professional performance in court , one could say they are amauters.
Highest Paid Barristers
Aaronson QC and John Gardiner QC - are thought to have earned £3 million each over the past year.
HOWARD GODFREY QC £ 928,000
ROY HEADLAM £ 787,000
CHARLES SALMON QC £ 762,000
I am sixty and too old to be as sharp as these youngsters.My main interest is trading financial markets , for which our ancestral brain has a handicap , and psychology.0 -
So how about an appeal?
Seems to be on the cards given the factors you present to validate your side of things.Confucius say woman who sits on Judges knee gets honourable discharge0 -

So if you're an expert in the psychological and mental traits which mark out a good barrister, when you met yours and he didn't display them, why didn't you knock him back and demand one that scored higher in your expert psychological profiling?0 -
Why were barristers involved for a minor accident? Couldn't you have represented yourself or are you obliged to use the insurers solicitors/barristers? I don't see why it wasn't dealt with through small claims?0

I am not allowed to do anything ,in fact I am not allowed even to respond to the judge ,barrister does all the talking , unless I am asked.I was even.Once the judge had bitten his head off once , he froze in court in the next important response.Once bitten twice shy.
The first thing he said was to me "there was a 50/50 chance it may go against me" , immediately I sensed I had a loser on my side with loser's personality.Nice research on google for losers versus winners. I could immediately sense he was immature , about the impending emotional act in court by the defendant , according to their witness statement .
I could read from my solicitor's presentation , the newly qualified knew very little about the "judge's state of mind " and how to present the case.Her own learned experience was to present the case , as learnt in law school .....stick to negligence ,damage and result ...........just plain law school stuff without adding any psyche to the case.0 -
We are obliged to use their barristers + solicitors .It was held in small claims in county court.
I think I am correct about it .Willesden county court , claim £3,000 + +interest ++ costs.0 -

So I'll ask again: if you're such an expert in psychology, why did you not choose to represent yourself and pursue the claim?0 -

You *think* you're correct?
I'm pretty sure if I'd been to court I'd remember all the details beyond any doubt.0
