“It is a real pleasure to have been invited to contribute to the Technology edition of The Writ this month on AI in a solicitors office . Few developments are likely to shape the profession as much as AI, and the question for practitioners is less whether it will change how we work than how we choose to use it. My hope is that the article helps colleagues approach the technology with curiosity and a clear sense of professional responsibility, keeping client confidentiality, accuracy and our own judgement at the centre of everything we do” Kevin Neary

The Law Group advises on a range of contentious probate matters, including disputed Wills and challenges relating to the administration of an estate.

Early legal advice can help you understand your position and the options available to you. If you are concerned about a Will or probate dispute, contact The Law Group to discuss your circumstances:

NHS falls into line with ruling on s*x
NHS England will implement new guidelines requiring hospitals to accommodate patients based on their biological s*x, reversing a previous policy that respected gender identity. This follows a Supreme Court ruling 18 months ago stating that ‘woman’ and ‘s*x’ in the Equality Act 2010 refer to biological s*x. Critics argue the old policy endangered women. The new rules apply to all single-s*x spaces, including wards and toilets.

Indefinite sentences quashed for two men
Two men, Luke Ings and Liam Bennett, have been released from indefinite sentences after serving nearly 20 years in custody. A high court judge and magistrate reviewed their cases, quashing their original sentences. Ings and Bennett were initially classified as dangerous offenders for crimes committed as teenagers. The Criminal Cases Review Commission referred their cases back for review, leading to new sentences of four years and 42 months, respectively.

Could Someone Take Over Your Practice Tomorrow?

Here’s a simple test for any sole practitioner.

Imagine that, tomorrow morning, someone else has to take over your practice.

Not permanently.

Just long enough to protect your clients, your business and your family while everything is sorted out.

Could they?

Would they know:

where everything is;

who your clients are;

what needs immediate attention;

how to access the information they are legally entitled to access;

what insurance you have;

what professional obligations apply;

who needs to be contacted;

and what your wishes are?

If the answer is “I’m not sure”, that may be the most important business-planning exercise you undertake this year.

A will is essential.

But for many professional practices, it may only be the beginning.

The question isn’t simply:

“What happens to my assets when I die?”

It is:

“What happens to everything I am professionally responsible for if I am suddenly not there?”

That is a conversation worth having.
