For the discussion of interesting UK caselaw and legislation, and for discussion of the legal profession - NOT FOR OBTAINING LEGAL ADVICE.

I am reaching out regarding a significant legal challenge we are currently facing, which is slated for resolution before the London High Court in February 2025.

As we approach this pivotal phase, the need for skilled legal representation that aligns with our strategic goals and a commitment to securing a positive outcome has never been more critical.

We have diligently met all procedural prerequisites to date. Recently, we've received a settlement proposal that demands thorough evaluation and adept negotiation to ensure it serves our best interests effectively.

In light of the complexities of our case and the critical role that expert legal advocacy will play, we are in pursuit of a new legal team. Specifically, we are interested in engaging a firm that not only specializes in potential settlement negotiations but also offers strong court representation, if necessary.

Importantly, we seek to proceed with this representation strictly on a 'no win no fee' basis, aligning with our financial strategy and risk management approach.

If interested, please contact me here.

Suppose a law is named something like “The Royal Decree of June 14, 2018 regulating the Distribution of Pharmaceuticals and Vitamins”. If a document needs to refer to that law more than once, it makes a mess and causes some painful reading. How should something like that with a date be abbreviated?

(note that’s a fictitious law similarly named to the law I need to reference; it’s really a question of English and law and lawyers are perhaps best equipped to answer)

The GDPR has some rules that require data controllers to be fair and transparent. EDPB guidelines further clarify in detail what fairness and transparency entails. As far as I can tell, what I am reading strongly implies a need for source code to be released in situations where an application is directly executed by a data subject and the application also processes personal data.

I might expand on this more but I’m looking for information about whether this legal theory has been analyzed or tested. If anyone knows of related court opinions rulings, or even some NGO’s analysis on this topic I would greatly appreciate a reference.

test post. LLM? Shadowing a barrister? BPP or SQE got you covered.
