Thank you to all those participants who recently took part in our short legal survey by sharing their insights and requirements. Delving into the legal challenges faced by WBN members, the data shows a significant portion, 40%, encountered legal hurdles in the last year. These challenges varied widely, underscoring the diverse legal landscape in which today’s businesses operate.
- Contract disputes emerged as a common issue, reflecting the complexities of modern business agreements and the need for clear legal guidance in drafting and executing contracts.
- Succession + Estate were also mentioned as people look to plan for the future both in regards to their business as well as their personal matters.
- Employment matters also featured prominently, highlighting the necessity for employers to navigate employment laws and regulations effectively.
- Real estate transactions, family law matters, and debt recovery were also reported, each presenting unique obstacles that require specialised legal expertise.
