How Law Firms Make Money
Posted Friday, 17th February 2012
Ever wondered just how exactly law firms make money? Or more importantly, how they make a profit? Are busy lawyers a good indication of how profitable a firm is? Ever wondered how gearing/leverage affect profitability, or what the difference between WIP lock-up and debt lock-up is?

There will be an opportunity to network over a glass of wine after the seminar.
