I am up, showered, shaved, remotely logged in to the firm's system with a shirt ironed ready for video conferencing. Just had morning coffee with emails as normal at beginning of day. Took first instruction working from home yesterday. Smashing this #workingfromhome lark

Dig out those old contracts you signed and look for a force majeure clause. Force majeure excuses you from fulfilling a contractual obligation because of circumstances beyond your control. Doesn't work for paying rent but might come in handy in other circumstances #forcemajeure

Waiting for a response from the Stamp Office is a bit like waiting to catch coronavirus. You're not entirely sure you're ever going to get it and in the meantime no-one knows what the hell is going on or can tell you anything remotely reassuring.

Efforts by regional start-up initiatives that have led to Merseyside outperforming the rest of the UK when it comes to business growth could be hampered by new government proposals, a leading legal expert from @KirwansLaw has claimed.

@deliavenables Sad to hear that you have retired. You did some really useful and interesting work. A well deserved retirement.

Speaking as someone trying to uphold one of those medieval institutions using godlike technology while trying to keep my Paleolithic emotions under control, it's no wonder I need a few real ales by the end of the week

[James Pressley @atomiccontracts]

Read a quote at the weekend that said that humanity's problem is that we have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology

In April 2020 the laws around whiplash personal injury claims are set to change. Solicitor @_JamesBarker_ lists seven points you need to know. Read the @LivEchonews article here - https://t.co/lpLHPxgYpo

I read lots of legislation. It isn't just the language, it's the structure and that every law assumes you have prior knowledge of all other legislation, which will be particularly relevant here. Fortunately I have a v expensive online law library to help me understand it all 😉

[Isabel Hardman @IsabelHardman]

This may be a a surprising point to some but in addition to MPs having a lot of pages of a bill to read overnight, most of them - including those who’ve been here years - aren’t actually v skilled at reading legislative language

I have now been drinking godawful coffee in the workplace for a quarter of a century. My dream is to open a combined law firm/coffee shop with a proper Italian coffee machine. It wouldn't make any money, but at least I might stand a chance of getting a decent cup of #Coffee

[James Pressley @atomiccontracts]

@afneil Not sure why you are only available on Wednesday. Please arrange for your show to be on Sunday to Thursday so I have something decent to listen to (as opposed to Channel 4 News) while I am ironing my work shirts. Thank you

I may be the only person on the planet not obsessed by a climate change crisis which can only be solved by the blockchain. Currently wondering if having 'Out of Order' tattooed on my forehead would make this more socially acceptable. In green ink, obviously #ClimateEmergency
