About

The purpose of The Practical Lawyer is simple: to keep solicitors in touch with the latest developments in each area of the law.

The beauty of The Practical Lawyer is that we do the reading for you. The result is a digest that you can rely on. It is a quick and easy way of making sure you know what’s going on in your specialist area of activity.

And you can use our integrated CPD programme. It is convenient, easy to use, and excellent value!
