“It is important in the context of innovation to realize that lawyers have always innovated. Lawyers’ core competency is the law, it is what they do. They innovate in their core competency all the time.” In this exclusive snippet from the forthcoming ‘Innovation in Law Firms: Implementing Successful Projects’, Stuart Whittle and Dr Catriona Wolfenden (Weightmans) begin with Donoghue v. Stevenson to show how lawyers have always innovated – even if they don’t realise it. Pre-order here for a 25% discount (just use code 'ILF25'): https://lnkd.in/evYMPtPi ‘Innovation in Law Firms’ is packed with insight from the authors who lead the award-winning innovation team at Weightmans, sharing their experience of starting innovation from scratch, as well as viewpoints ranging from the strategic, board-level perspective to the on-the-ground experience of doing innovation projects. Practical rather than theoretical in style, it aims to fill some of the adoption gap by exploring the highs and lows of innovating in law firms, outlining practical steps that can be taken to mitigate some of the potential pitfalls. #Innovation

Trust Laws in the Czech Republic and Hungary A new title, Trust Laws in the Czech Republic and Hungary, is now live for subscribers to our Private Client collection. https://lnkd.in/eEkYWYUw Both Czech and Hungarian trusts celebrate their 10th anniversary in 2024. These modern structures were introduced in response to the limitations of earlier succession-planning mechanisms and, together with other legal instruments, provided new tools for wealth management, estate planning and asset protection, which have reshaped the estate-planning environment. Consulting editors Paolo Panico, István Sándor and James Turnbull have assembled an expert team to explore the issues and challenges encountered when introducing common law trust concepts into civil law legal systems. It also reviews the legal and practical aspects of trusts in these two – quite different – jurisdictions. Contributors include: Michaela Dražková, Daniela Gadasova, Bohumil Havel, Stepan Holub, Istvan Illes LL.M. MBA, Petr Jakubec, Ivan Kovář, Petr Laštovka, Dr. Csaba Magyar, LL.M, TEP, Dr. Ákos Menyhei LL.M., TEP, David Neveselý, Pihera Vlastimil, Jiří Pokorný, Sara Sesztak, Helena Svárovská, Dr Gabor B Szabo, TEP.

“Why do we care so much about LNG?” To celebrate the publication of the new edition of ‘Liquefied Natural Gas: The Law and Business LNG’, we’re sharing this extract from Steven R. Miles (Rice University's Baker Institute for Public Policy; Baker Botts) explaining why this energy source is so crucial and how it will continue to be so ‘for at least the next 25 to 50 years’. Read the full extract here: https://lnkd.in/egT9PiXk Since the first edition of this best-selling title in 2008, the international LNG industry has shown a rare capacity for innovation and change. Despite this, there was no predicting the nature and full extent of the sector’s transformation since the book’s last edition in 2017, and this fourth edition, edited by Paul Griffin (White & Case LLP, University of Dundee) and David Baker (White & Case LLP) has been updated to take into account the rapidly shifting arrangements and participations across the international LNG business.

‘Power of Attorney Legislation: A STEP Global Guide’ is available for pre-order! Secure your 25% pre-order discount here: https://lnkd.in/eFEaGvVR Edited by Emily Deane, TEP, this new Special Report is the quick-reference resource practitioners have been looking for. Practitioners contend with inconsistent power of attorney legislation across the globe. Some jurisdictions have very limited or even no legislation, and for those that do have robust legislation in place, it may not be recognised outside of where it was made. In ‘Power of Attorney Legislation: A STEP Global Guide’, Society of Trust & Estate Practitioners (STEP) members present provide quick and informative answers in a Q&A format on key areas of the policy and legislation of their jurisdiction, including: – powers of representation and other protective measures; – the formalities of establishing a power of attorney; – registration processes; – revoking or terminating power of attorney; – recognition in other jurisdictions; – court powers; – assessing testamentary capacity; and – laws and procedures. With most clients having assets and property spread across jurisdictions, advisers must know how the legal frameworks in those places coordinate with the client’s own jurisdiction. The Q&A format of this Special Report allows for easy comparison. Featuring contributions from: Stephen Alexander, Fraser Allister, Sherlynn G Chan, Yue-En Chong TEP, Emily Deane, TEP, Farah Deba Mohamed Sofian, Sandra Duerden, Joel Evans, Kelly Greig, Martin Haanen, Nour Harb, Gilly Kennedy-Smith, Ian Lebane, Andrew Miller, Timothy Morton, Martina Moscardi, William Ostick, Anthony Partridge, Shelley Rhoads Perry, JD, TEP, Leah Sewell, Jason Tian, Claire van Overdijk KC, Margaret Walsh and Kevin J.
