Our Trainee Solicitor attended a Conference at @scelg yesterday, focused upon what lawyers can do for animals. We hear it was a very worthwhile and well-attended event, and look forward to hearing all about it from Hannah in due course!

@redmaynebentley @RunBalmoral @Sue_Ryder All the very best to Lisa!

It's lovely to get good feedback for the work we do. Gives us a warm fuzzy feeling inside (or maybe that's just indigestion...?) Many thanks to our recent client for taking the time to give us his thoughts.

It is Earth Hour this weekend - we love to participate with a homemade curry eaten by candle light or torches. Will you be taking part?

[Earth Hour Official @earthhour]

While we fight against nature loss 🌎, we also have to work for a sustainable future. RT how you're going to switch off and speak up for #nature🌱

[Stephen & Robb LLP @StephenRobbLLP]

@moray_law We will absolutely take that! Have a great weekend, Neil.

[Stephen & Robb LLP @StephenRobbLLP]

@moray_law 🤣🤣but we're on Mid Street, Neil..... !!

@LegalAwards Thank you. A lot of great work being done by small and/or rural firms across Scotland, plus we are expected to be knowledgeable in a variety of fields rather than a single speciality. The truth is... we'd really like a party and are quite jealous of all your pics today!

[Stephen & Robb LLP @StephenRobbLLP]

Wouldn't it be great if small and/or rural firms could be recognised in this way, rather than simply the monopoly of the larger central belt firms? 'Best Small Firm' and/or 'Best Rural Firm' for next year @LegalAwards ? If not already featuring in your existing line-up.
