The British High Commission publishes a list of lawyers who are able to give advice in English to British nationals for the convenience of enquirers. However, neither HMG nor any official of the High Commission take any responsibility for the competency or probity of any firm/advocate on the list or for the consequence of any legal action or for any legal fees and expenses.

The list is available on this page and is e-mailed or posted to British nationals on request. The list includes a number of lawyers in each town on the island to give some freedom of choice, but not so many that the enquirer has difficulty in choosing a practitioner. The High Commission never recommends a particular lawyer in order to maintain complete impartiality.
