LEGALLY SPEAKING

In Part 2, Jonathan Polin talks with us about Meritas, the value of English Law internationally and also its repuational worth.

In this second episode of Legally Speaking, we examine the value that English Law brings to the economy, to society and to the world. Part 1 talks to Jonathan Wood and Richard Bamforth, directors of LegalUK, who tell us about the Oxera Report that was commisioned to examine precisely this subject.

In Part 2 of the first episode of Legally Speaking, we welcome Angela Dimsdale Gill, the winner of the Wig and Pen Prize and also ex-lawyer, Alex Stephany, the CEO of beam.org Be prepared to be blown away by the outstanding charitable work these lawyers - past and present - are doing.

The first episode of Legally Speaking, the podcast of City Solicitor, looks at just how charitable City lawyers are. (And, yes, you did read that correctly.)  This episode is in two parts; in this first part, we focus on the work done by the Solicitors' Company and talk to to the Chair and Vice Chair of the Company's Charities' Committee, Alastair Collett and Virginia Salter, as well as to Victor Amadigwe, a senior solicitor at Haringey Law Centre, an organisation that has benefitted from funding from the Company's Charity.  Enjoy listening. We hope you will be inspired.
