  • 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.

  • Partner Moves
    Lateral Partner Moves in London May - June 2020 Welcome to the latest round-up of lateral partner moves in the legal market from Edwards Gibson; where we look back at announced partner-level recruitment activity in London over the past two months and give you a ‘who’s moved where’ update. With law firms having to rapidly adjust to the economic challenges thrown up by COVID-19, their cash- conservation strategies have so far ranged from capital calls, drawing deferrals, rent reductions, pay- cuts and promotion/hire freezes (to name but a few). Although there have so far been mercifully few redundancies, with the UK government already tapering furlough payments, which are due to end completely in October 2020, it is likely many more firms will instigate formal or informal redundancy programmes over the next quarter. Against this backdrop it is unsurprising that at the half-year point, the number of partner moves (195) is down more than a fifth on the statistical average (244) for the same January–June period last year. Nevertheless, a complex picture appears to be developing. On the one hand, despite elevated caution around lateral partner hires, the picture for transactional lawyers is likely still flattered by a lag effect reflecting processes which were in advanced stages, prior to the impact of COVID-19. Against this, expectations of a pending boom in COVID-induced workflow - such as disputes and restructuring - along with potential “bargains” to be had from disruption-induced voluntary and involuntary movement of partners (including perhaps the odd émigré returning from a beleaguered Hong Kong), has boosted lateral numbers which may explain why, in the past two months, the number of laterals (61) is down only 14% on the same period last year (71).
