A vulnerable opponent. Dated warnings to counsel. What does the conduct record require the regulator to examine?
Assess the acts. Explain the decision.
The Unanswered Record supports Miss E and Mr J’s call for independent scrutiny of Jack Christopher Kelsey Webb (professionally Jack Webb; barrister, 3PB, Bristol; called to the Bar in 2016), a self-employed barrister at 3PB. The central questions are what he reviewed, how material concerns were represented, and whether his own conduct complied with professional duties.

BSB: assess the conduct—not merely the fact that it was litigation. Will you assess the dated warnings and Webb’s submissions and conduct concerning the evidence for possible misleading advocacy, lack of integrity or improper use of advocacy against a vulnerable opponent? Identify the applicable rules, the evidence needed and the weight given to potential harm. If the threshold for investigation is met, will you investigate Webb’s own conduct? If not, give the specific reasons.
