Productive committee meeting this evening. Lots of events (social and training) in the pipeline for our membership! We are particularly excited about our upcoming summer drinks which brings together members of the judiciary and the Bar!

[West Midlands FLBA @wmflba]

Last week, we held the first talk of our lecture series with an excellent talk delivered by Nicholas Allen KC regarding trusts in financial remedy proceedings.

Thanks to all those who attended and to Nick for the brilliant talk and notes.

This IS a significant scheme. It is important and necessary. BUT it is not properly remunerated and currently only the FLBA train people.
