Goodall and Lobb also delve into the common pitfalls that practitioners face in ensuring financial wellbeing, getting one’s ducks in a row, how their experience in private banking informs their approach to legal professionals, what they’re paying attention to this coming financial year, what lawyers can and should be focused on, and how lawyers can think about the journey ahead.
