10th November - Law News

FOCUS OF THE DAY: One question which is asked most frequently by new lawyers on deciding to go in-house or joining in-house teams in my experience (usually with great intensity) is how can they develop commercial astuteness or business acumen and quickly understand and contribute to the business, win the confidence of senior management and be seen not only as a lawyer but a strategic business partner.  Full story - The Lawyer

FOCUS OF THE DAY: The number of complaints about claims management companies (CMCs) received by the Legal Ombudsman (LeO) in the first six months of this year has hit almost 9,000 – a far higher amount than expected. LeO took over responsibility for CMC complaints in January this year from the Ministry of Justice’s Claims Management Regulator. In its last full year, from April 2013 to March 2014, the regulator received 8,500 complaints. However, of the 9,000 complaints or ‘contacts’, LeO only accepted 648 for investigation – a much lower number than expected. Full story - Legal Futures

FOCUS OF THE DAY: Lord Chief Justice told to ditch wigs and gowns in court. 'Chaotic' and 'archaic' crown courts hinder experience of witnesses, victims, and defendants.

FOCUS OF THE DAY: In-house lawyers, “bashed up” by justice secretary Michael Gove over the issue of pro bono, should have an “open debate” about making it compulsory, the chair of the GC100 Group has said. Graham Vinter, former general counsel of BG Group, said in-house lawyers should recognise that “there is a problem” over pro bono. “I really don’t think the message has landed in terms of in-house lawyers and heads of legal departments,” Mr Vinter said.
