Adding insult to injury
Article Abstract:
Health and safety is a key issue for most big firms and many smaller companies, but there are still companies paying low wages and not taking health and safety issues seriously enough. This legal specialty has become important in Manchester, England, and there are a number of law forms with good track records. Those with a reputation in defending insurers include Berrymans Lace Mawer, while John Pickering and Partners is among those with strengths in helping plaintiffs in cases relating to work.

Private functions
Article Abstract:
Some law firms in Leeds, England, have abandoned private client work as providing lower returns than commercial work, but Lupton Fawcett has instead focused on private clients. The law firm has received an award for its personal finance work. Wrigleys also specialises in this market. Lupton Fawcett has introduced interdepartmental training since lawyers may not always understand the work of departments other than their own. Wrigleys also deal with charities and universities.
