The game Help section states the following,
I currently have the following stats (unbuffed):
Watchful 132
Shadowy 121
Dangerous 104
Persuasive 114
I have been awaiting an Invitation from the Ambitious Barrister for quite some time and there has been no sign so far.
I believe I have far surpassed the stat requirement and so what else is there that I must do?
Exactly how long should I be expected to wait?

If I remember correctly, first you get a card to meet her when she’s out in her cab in London, then she shows up as a gold-bordered storylet in your Lodgings. You certainly should have met her by now - I think I met her within a few card draws of the first time my gear brought my modified stat above 100.
If you haven’t drawn the card, the only solution is to continue drawing cards and hope the fickle RNG will have mercy.
No need to wait for the Barrister’s card. You can start the path to a Person is Some Little Consequence by talking with your neighbors (via the Local Gossip at your lodgings).
Oh, you’re right! I have an alt who has just 101 Dangerous with Feducci’s Lance. All the local gossips show the option, but it’s grayed out except when he talks to the Clay Coalman while wearing his Hard-Wearing outfit.
I have yet to see a Barrister’s card and trust me, I have been patiently watching for it since my first stat reached 100. Failing that, I simply continued to work on raising all of the others to 100+.
I have previously pursued the Local Gossip threads too. But I’ll bite again.
House of Chimes
not possible because it requires me to be an Exceptional Friend. I am not.
…perhaps not
Speak to the Bohemian Sculptress…
leads to 2 possible options:
Off to the Shuttered Palace
Into the Empress’ Court
Giving Lessons at Mahogany Hall
I have done all of these before, so which of them is necessary for POSI?
…perhaps not
Speak to the Clay Coalman…
and I’m now in Wolfstack Docks. What should I be looking for? The gold bordered Buying a Ship is not possible because that requires POSI.
…perhaps not
Speak to the Urchin on the Roof…
The only option available leads to The D__nable Box storylet. Should I do this again?
…perhaps not
Speak to the Loquacious Vicar…
This leads to two options:
A Tale of Terror
An Old Friend
Which of these should I do again?
…perhaps not
A Note about Jack
is the last option, but this requires POSI
…perhaps not.
So, I shall kindly ask again. If I need not wait for a Barrister’s Card, then which path should I follow?

No, it’s none of those. Are you sure she’s not in your Lodgings? She’d be on a gold-bordered card. At first it says:
Who is she?
An immaculately dressed lady waits at your doorstep…
That doesn’t sound right. If you are certain that you haven’t seen the any of the cards i.e. you don’t have access to the gold bordered card at your lodgings "Who is She?" or any of the early POSI options in the 4 starting areas or access to the Bazaar side-streets.
I would send an email to support@failbettergames.com as it sounds like you have encountered a bug.

This is probably why you didn’t get her card. Talking with your neighbors (via the Gossip) is an alternative to waiting for her card.
Can you check in your qualities if you have A Person is Some Little Consequence and if so, at what level?

No I do not have that quality

Yes, thank you. It doesn’t seem right at all.
No, I have not seen any of those options before.
I have progressed reasonably far without POSI. The last endeavour was recently opening up the Labyrinth of Tigers. There are now no new areas of London that I do not have access to apart from the House of Chimes.
I have sent a ticket.
