  • BLS Annual Report 2013
    Birmingham Law Society PRESIDENT’S FOREWORD President’s Foreword As I considered preparation of this article I glanced at Mary Kaye’s MartinAllsopp, President foreword of last year and noted the words “nothing actually prepares you for the work needed to run Birmingham Law Society”. How right Mary was. I recall that I became your President on St George’s Day and nothing of major significance happened in the first 7 days of my Presidency. Little did I know that a storm was fast approaching from the Atlantic. I prepared myself for a major intervention of a City Firm profession by the SRA and the cost of obtaining which thankfully, up to the date of writing this article, never Professional Indemnity Cover which continues to be a came. I was concerned about the effect on the profession major concern particularly to the smaller firms in our area of alternative business structures and the financial position going forward. It was my ambition to appear on page 3 of of BLS in the midst of a recession. I could not then have the Post but this page is apparently reserved for more known that I would be embroiled in the most significant glamorous articles! Legal Aid battle that the profession had ever witnessed. With experience in the property market for more than 40 I believe that we have reached a hiatus now in the number years this came as somewhat of a challenge. I have done of members of BLS for the time being. A number of my best in every speech that I have made and every article mergers have taken place during my Presidential Year and that I have written to defend the right of access to justice I believe that more will be planned for the next.

  • Legal Services Act Update
    Legal Services Act Update Welcome to the Spring 2014 edition of our Legal Services Act Update, an e-update detailing recent press coverage of how the professional services community and regulatory bodies are responding to the major changes facilitated by the Legal Services Act 2007. This issue highlights the progress made in legal services deregulation and business innovation in the years since The Legal Services Act came into force. As ever we welcome your feedback. Best regards, Clare Rodway Managing Director 0207 323 3230 [email protected] Press summary Issue: Spring 2014 Contents This issue Legal market innovation picks up speed London Borough of Lambeth considers ABS licences Virtual and online legal services storm the market Mergers among law firms gather pace ABS failures pile up ABSs go global New ABS insurance code Impact of Legal Services reform - debate Tips and snippets - Law Management Section roadshow, Birmingham SRA fines increase agreed This issue Almost 250 alternative business structures (ABSs) have been licensed since the Legal Services Act came into force and the new regulatory regime is certainly encouraging innovation across the legal services sector. More names that have joined the sector include Direct Line’s launch of a legal services arm with law firm partner Parabis Law; and big four accountancy firm Price Waterhouse Coopers (PwC). Another consequence of legal market disruption is that mergers amongst law firms are gathering pace with 28 involving Britain’s 100 leading law firms in 2013, the highest annual number of such mergers ever. And shifts are happening in unexpected ways with new online legal services businesses sprouting up in the UK market.
