NLJ this week: Always civil

From business rentals to bedtime reading, former District Judge Stephen Gold has the law covered and under control, in this week’s Civil way
Gold tackles a new code of practice commercial property relationships, the conundrum of whether COVID-19 is a Barder event, and the latest on tweaks to the pre-action protocol for personal injury claims. He looks at a plea for lawyers to be concise from the President of the Family Court and a debt dispute concerning a school.
