A Message From the Editor

Good Morning. The UK Top 50 firms are struggling to get clients to pay their bills. In India, meanwhile, we're covering the move of 20 lawyers from prominent Indian firm Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co to rival firm JSA Advocates & Solicitors. Also, at a time when AI is on everyone's mind, we've done a Q&A with Canadian legal tech guru Colin Lachance, who is leading the Ontario Bar Association's new initiative to boost the use of Gen AI in everyday practice among its 16,000-strong membership.
