Yesterday I had 40 emails from one solicitor on one case in court today. This morning I note my emails from various solicitors on a variety of cases starting arriving at 2 am. Something is broken in the way we are practising law #lawyerslife #worklifebalance

This is going to be fantastic. I cannot wait to hear these brilliant women.

As the new strain of Corona Virus is being blamed for the London spike, could it also be blamed for the odd behaviour of my jeans that no longer stretch to fit me? #LockdownWeightGain

Great development for @AllenOvery staff. Being a lawyer doesn’t mean you can’t have a family life too. Here’s hoping more firms follow #LawSocietyGazette
