Becoming a barrister in the UK is a long process and there is intense competition. After graduating in law, one should do a bar professional training course.
In the UK, legal practitioners are classified as barristers and solicitors. The barrister argues in court, while the solicitor takes the case and prepares the case. There are around 16,000 active barristers in the UK. Among them are Prof Dr. Surya Prasad Subedi, Devendra Singh Shrestha, and Sneha Shakya Shrestha of Nepali origin.
