Law Firm News Roundup: 3rd to 9th June

Welcome to the second edition of 'Law Firm News' from the SundayLawReview.com team. The aim of this column is to primarily focus on what happened at law firms in UK as reported through online legal publications. 

The fallout from Dewey & LeBoeuf  continues to serve as a reminder of difficult times for the business of law. One of the most important developments of the week as reported in Legal Futures was the Solicitors Regulation Authority's rejection of calls for having greater powers to fine alternative business structures (ABS) than traditional law firms. SRA went on to further dismiss suggestions by the Law Society that it should not have substantial fining powers at all.
