Sarah Langford is a barrister. Her job is to stand in court representing the mad and
the bad, the vulnerable, the heartbroken and the hopeful. She must become their voice:
weave their story around the black and white of the law and tell it to the courtroom. These
stories may not make headlines, but they will change the lives of ordinary people in
extraordinary ways. They are stories which, but for a twist of luck, might have been yours.
To work at the Bar is to enter a world shrouded by strange clothing, archaic rituals
and inaccessible language. So how does it feel to be an instrument of such an
unknowable system? And what does it mean to be at its mercy? Our legal system promises
us justice, impartiality and fair judgment. Does it, or can it, deliver this?
With remarkable candour, Sarah describes 11 cases which reveal what goes on in our
criminal and family courts. She examines how she feels as she defends the person
standing in the dock. She tells compelling stories - of domestic fallout, everyday
burglary, sexual indiscretion and children caught up in the law - that are sometimes
shocking and often heart-stopping. She shows us how our attitudes and actions can
shape not only the outcome of a case but the legal system itself.
