Tribunal claims.
Commenting on his election Michael said:” I would like to see the membership of the
Society expand by ensuring that it is providing a valuable support infrastructure
for the full range of legal practices and businesses in the South West.
“There are already some exciting developments with the Society entering into a
contract with Central Law Training to provide premier tier CPD courses for members
at competitive prices.
“Bristol Law Society has also entered into a long-term relationship with the
University of West of England which will provide a number of unique opportunities
for member firms in addition to improved premises and facilities. The Society is
also creating a corporate membership package that is designed to engage all
individuals who support the provision of legal services within each firm in the
city.”
