Rowan Williams, partner at Baker Tilly, and John Llewellyn-Lloyd, head of mergers & acquisitions at Espirito Santo Investment Bank, will join keynote speaker legal consultant Professor Stephen Mayson to offer their insights into the changes.
The Legal Services Act – Taking the law into your own hands takes place in Regents Park, London on 27 June 2011, with Mortgage Solutions as an event media partner.
The event will explore the opportunities presented by the new legislation, which will allow businesses outside the legal sector to offer a full range of legal services under their own brand. These are implemented under Alternative Business Structure (ABS).
Williams and Llewellyn-Lloyd will provide their insights into aspects of ABS and join Mayson for a forum and Q&A.
Breakout sessions focusing on contentious and non-contentious topics are also scheduled for the day, providing an opportunity to discuss issues with industry leaders.
Eddie Goldsmith, partner at Goldsmith Williams, said: “This legislation will herald the biggest change in legal services delivery in a generation and could provide a real financial boost to businesses that implement an ABS.
“Having speakers of this calibre at our event is extremely useful for businesses to fully understand such an important issue and think about how they can capitalise on the new legislation.”
