Summary
- 1.
Clause 9(c), non-competeHigh
The 12-month prohibition on working for any law firm anywhere in the UK, Ireland or EU, in any capacity, is almost certainly wider than reasonably necessary and therefore unlikely to be enforceable.
Tillman v Egon Zehnder Ltd [2019] UKSC 32 - 2.
Clause 11, data and monitoringHigh
Blanket contractual consent is not an adequate basis for general employment processing, special-category data or unrestricted monitoring.
UK GDPR, Arts 6 and 9 - 3.
Clause 4, holiday carry-overHigh
The unconditional five-day cap conflicts with mandatory carry-over rights where sickness, statutory leave or employer failure prevents leave being taken.

- 01Letter before claim, build the response planA letter of claim under the Pre-Action Protocol for Construction and Engineering Disputes is stress-tested as if acting for the other side, then built into the plan the team runs the pre-action meeting from.
- 02A TUPE transfer, from question to work-stream memoNineteen people are in scope of a services transfer. The client wants to know whether TUPE applies and what has to happen and by when. The timetable is the part most likely to go wrong.
- 03From a horizon development to a client updateRegulatory change usually reaches a firm as a forwarded email from whoever reads the most. Horizon Scanning turns it into a register with materiality bands, deadlines and owners, and one action moves a development straight into a client letter.
- 04Drafting a response to the SRA or the FCAAn SRA letter asks eight numbered questions on supervision and AI use, with a firm deadline. The Regulator Response preset answers exactly what is asked, in the order asked, with a chronology and candid acknowledgement where the file has a gap.
- 05Build a disclosure letter against the agreed warrantiesSellers of Northgate Analytics have agreed the warranty schedule and now have to disclose against it. The grid runs the room against the warranties, then the letter is drafted from the cells that came back with something to say.
- 06Check a will for execution and capacity issuesAn executor has produced a will written on a shop-bought form and signed at a care home eight months before death. The review checks execution, capacity evidence and whether any of the gifts fail as drafted.
- 07Review a lasting power of attorney before registrationA client has completed both property and health instruments with restrictions copied from a website. The review checks whether the restrictions are workable and whether any of the instructions would be severed when the forms are registered.
- 08Build an estate administration schedule with its deadlinesAn estate with a farm, two rental properties and shares in a family company has three executors who live in different countries. The run turns the paperwork into a dated schedule so everyone can see what is due and when.
- 09Prepare a board paper on directors' duties in AustraliaA UK group has appointed two London executives to the board of its Australian subsidiary and neither has served on an Australian board before. The paper sets out what the duties require of them in practice, and says how the research was sourced.
- 10Capture knowledge from closed matters into one registerA firm closes about two hundred matters a year and keeps everything in matter folders nobody searches. The run reads a sample of closed matters and pulls out the clauses, positions and research answers worth keeping.
