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!
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.
We have some new posters up in our offices this week with guidance for staff and clients alike. Because life's hard enough as it is... let's show each other a bit of respect.
