Cross-examine a barrister

What is a barrister? Why do they get to ask the questions? Why do they represent people who are obviously guilty? Are they different from other types of lawyers? Why do they still wear 19^th-century costumes?

During this session, a panel of barristers answer these questions – and more.

Presented by Victorian Bar
