Lord Burnett, the Lord Chief Justice, has spoken out against the government for allowing the court estate to fall into disrepair.

Civil law (non-family) barristers are waiting months, if not years, to be paid for work on legal aid high-cost cases, the Bar Council Remuneration Committee has said.

Over 1,300 legal professionals from 19 law firms and barristers’ chambers across the UK have raised more than £115,000 for research and care charity Breast Cancer Now as part of this year’s Tour de Law.
