| This has been one of our more interesting weeks, and we thought we would share the highlights with you |
| Major High Court Case
Jon Cartwright and Ian Johnson have been working on a very significant piece of high level litigation involving multiple law firms for a year now. The trial in the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court started five weeks ago, and Jon spent three days of this week in London, appearing in Court as an Expert Witness for the Claimant on Wednesday. |

| Law Society Annual Financial Management Conference Trish Kinahan graced the podium as a speaker at the Law Management Section's Annual Finance Conference yesterday, speaking on the very positive results of the 2014 law firm benchmarking survey, which we produce for the Law Society. |

| Partnership Dispute Mediation Andy Harris managed to keep his concentration for 14 hours yesterday, in what became a marathon mediation between law firm owners, who had seemingly irreconcilable differences going back years. |

| SRA Meeting Andy Harris attended a COFA morning (as opposed to a coffee morning) with the SRA on Wednesday, to discuss how the planned SRA consultation into the revision to the SRA Accounts Rules and the work of Independent Accountants is likely to roll out. Jon Cartwright also met with the SRA a few weeks before this, and as a result of both meetings, we cay say with reasonable confidence that the SRA have learnt from previous consultations and will roll this one out in a more business-like fashion. Watch this space. |
