Thank you to @classlegal.bsky.social for hosting a fabulous panel on s.25 conduct issues this evening. @nicholasallen29.bsky.social @SamHillasKC, Nicola Gray KC, Anita Mehta, Emma Hitchens, Christine Gentry were brilliant.

I hope those who are on Twitter but not here yet soon change allegiance.

Another day Red Book panel beating yesterday.
Lovely to be on spine when it’s published but a slog to find the magic time to actually do it!
Great fun working with @nicholasallen29.bsky.social on our bits.

Pleased to collaborate with @nicholasallen29.bsky.social & @andrewdaylegal.bsky.social
to produce this @thebarcouncil.bsky.social guide to private neutral evaluations.
They are all the rage in financial remedies & we think might be adopted more widely in other areas.
