Podcasts about solicitors

On today's Legally Speaking Podcast, I am delighted to be joined by Matthew Claughton.Matthew is the Managing Director of Olliers Solicitors, one of the UK's leading criminal defence firms. Since taking full control of the business in 2018, he has helped steer Olliers through a major period of growth, quadrupling turnover, strengthening its reputation in privately funded criminal defence, and building a firm widely recognised for its expertise in pre-charge engagement, serious crime, fraud, regulatory work and crisis management. He is ranked as a Leading Partner by The Legal 500, has been recognised as the Legal 500 Northern Powerhouse Criminal Lawyer of the Year, and is widely regarded as one of the standout names in high-stakes criminal defence.But this conversation is about more than rankings and results. It is about what really makes an outstanding criminal defence firm today. How do you build a practice around preventing charges, not just winning at trial? How do you lead through growth without losing standards? And what does it take to stay independent, ambitious and trusted in one of the most pressured areas of legal practice? So why should you be listening in? You can hear Rob and Matthew discussing:- Preventing Charges Through Proactive Defence- Quadrupling Turnover with Strategic Leadership- Client-First Culture Driving Sustained Growth- Developing Future Criminal Defence Talent- Calm Judgment Under Intense Pressure.Connect with Mathew Claughton here - https://uk.linkedin.com/in/matthewclaughton

When a defendant in a court case is granted legal aid, the State pays. Before a reform of the payment system introduced on July 1st, solicitors could bill the Department of Justice €239.38 for their first appearance in court for their client and €59.86 for each subsequent one. The invoice is called a legal aid certificate.Defendants frequently face multiple charges that are heard together in the same sitting. Before July 1st, the solicitor could invoice for each charge, meaning multiple payments for each client. In the past 18 months more than 100 cases involved at least 10 invoices being sent to the Department concerning individual clients whose charges were dealt with together or in quick succession before the District Court.In the reform of the payment system, solicitors will now receive a flat fee of €520 per criminal legal aid client.Many solicitors on the legal aid panel have rejected this new payment model, and withdrew their services for two days this week.The Minister says he will meet the Law Society to discuss its concerns about payment reforms, but as he has previously said the reforms will stay, is there any hope of resolution?Irish Times political correspondent Cormac McQuinn explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by John Casey. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

John Lee, lawyer with Hong Kong law firm Angela Wang & Co, breaks down what happens when cryptocurrency, NFTs, and tokenized assets collide with the law.Carefully unpacking five categories of digital assets, John explains why Bitcoin and Ethereum operate so differently from stablecoins pegged to reserve assets. He walks through Hong Kong's evolving regulatory stance, including the SFC's 2023 licensing system and the HKMA's 2025 stablecoin regime. The landmark Re Bitcoin case from 2023 is particularly illuminating (it established digital assets as a valid third category of property under common law).Because digital assets don't fit neatly into traditional property classifications, disputes around ownership, insolvency, and cross-border jurisdiction are growing more complex. John makes a compelling case for arbitration as the smarter resolution path, offering confidentiality, flexibility, and access to specialized arbitrators who actually understand blockchain technology.Our GuestJohn Y.C.

Zac gives us the rundown on a speaker build that required way more technical tweaking than those viral DIY videos ever admit, and we debate if the new Kreg joinery tool actually has what it takes to dethrone the Festool Domino, or if we're all just victims of influencer marketing.We also swap notes on the absolute best ways to handle door-to-door salespeople, the mystery of Carhartt's transition into high fashion, deep pour epoxy that decides to smoke in the cup, the devastating results of taking a Japanese pole saw to aluminum extrusion, and the shared global trauma of having a U2 album forcefully injected into our iPods.

The Renter's Rights Act came into force at the start of May, and it marked the biggest change to how private rentals work in England in a generation. There are a host of new protections and legal entitlements for renters, and many potential pitfalls for landlords to consider. Assured shorthold tenancies have been abolished, and have automatically been converted into rolling tenancies - sometimes known as ‘assured periodic tenancies'. It means that the tenancy has no automatic end date. Section 21 notices - also known as "no fault" evictions have been abolished, and Landlords are not allowed to ask for more than 1 months' rent as a deposit. Bidding wars for rental properties are now forbidden, and there are measures to limit rent increases. But it doesn't apply to all renters in all properties.What about students? They all rent, but only some students are covered by the Act. And if landlords don't follow the new laws carefully, they could face fines of thousands of pounds. So what are the details that property owners and their tenants need to know?Presenter: Dr Joelle Grogan Producer: Ravi Naik Editor: Damon Rose Contributors: Siobhan Taylor-Ward, a Housing Solicitor at Lawstop on the Wirral Nermin Suleman, an associate solicitor at Prosperity Law in Manchester Tim Wrigley a partner at Wrigley's Solicitors in Leeds
