The death penalty, and other law firm risks
If you think you're having a bad day in law firm risk and compliance - things could be worse...
After 21 years at Legal Risk and 40+ years as a solicitor advising law firms on managing their professional risks - defending catastrophic 'bet the business' professional liability claims, protecting reputational risk and avoiding claims, anti-money laundering and other compliance risks altogether, I'm moving on, with Sue Mawdsley on 1 July 2024 to Keystone Law where we will be spending more time on client work and less on running a practice.
I shared some of my experiences with Adam Spencer of AJ Fox in a podcast, including a case where, if you thought you were having a bad day in the office, the client faced the death penalty.
Links to the podcast are below.
For those who have subscribed to the Legal Risk newsletter, some for many years, you have had the last one, but if you would like the new one I am planning from Keystone Law from September, and have not already signed up, please email me at [email protected] and it would help me if you could put 'Please subscribe me to your new Newsletter' in the heading.
So here are the links to the podcast -
