Business Law - Spring Update
Welcome to the Business Law Spring Update.  We are using this e-shot to: - welcome Philip Stephenson, our new Head of Company Commercial;
- highlight the Bribery Act 2010 which is, we anticipate, shortly to come into force;
- illustrate some of the issues which our clients are commonly facing in relating to their trading terms in this more cautious trading environment; and
- discuss some interesting developments in law and policy.
If you would like to discuss any advice which you need, on a confidential and entirely no-obligation basis, please do not hesitate to telephone me or any of the team.
Regards Mark Lucas
