Hard times?

Filed Under Legal practice 

A personal opinion from a “usually tetchy but recently quite chipper old buzzard” on how the recession is affecting the legal world:

  • Personal Injury - times have never been better
  • Housing Law - good times!
  • Divorce - quiet time of year, but come January, credit crunch or no, its open season
  • Wills and Probate - dead as a dodo
  • Employment Law - busy as hell
  • Commercial Law - mergers, acquisitions, partnerships aplenty
  • Insolvency - booming sector
  • Conveyancing - pity the poor sods … this is as bad as anyone can remember

    Just hope I can last out until January…

    Estate Planning and Wills are always a last priority in good times or bad, but it is sad that people are more likely to persue a personal injury claim or attempt to write off a loan as mis sold rather than plan their families future.

    Regards
    Will
