A barrister’s wig in the UK criminal courts…Dominic D’Souza explains our Victorian dress and the purposes behind it!
Hi Dominic, when i was younger I wanted to be a barrister specifically criminal defence like yourself as I wanted to have a career that allows me to help those in need and do something truly fulfilling with my life. I didn't study law but did finish uni with a good degree good grade from a decent uni. I'm only a few years out of uni and am thinking maybe this is my calling but it's very daunting and I'm from a working class background so I'm not associated with anyone in the profession sadly. Any advice for someone like myself? I honestly think I'm talented enough to do this but I'm not sure if I'll make it. You are an inspiration keep up the good work.
