As Legal Futures reports today, we are very pleased to welcome Crispin Passmore to Kingsley Napley! Crispin is a former SRA, Legal Services Board and Legal Services Commission Director, and joins us to lead our new services called ‘Stratify.’ He’ll be joining with our top-ranked Legal Regulatory Services team led by Iain Miller, Julie Norris, Jessica Clay and Colette Best to offer top-flight strategic regulatory advice for private equity firms, other investors and C-suite leadership on the UK and international legal market.

Our regulatory team are frequently instructed by university students involved in disciplinary proceedings relating to sexual misconduct.
