Solicitor sole practitioners

[Jules2013]

Hi, I am thinking of setting up as a sole practitioner solicitotr. Anyone on here done similar? Any tips gratefully received

[Zoelda]

No but I am a consultant which is far far easier!

Check out the cost of PI insurance before you commit to this path, you may be horrified surprised!

What is your practice area

[lingle]

I can tell you're a solicitor because you haven't answered rangirl's question (which is a key one by the way).

business law sole practice = easy = effectively a part-time in-house lawyer for several companies.

general litigation sole practice on the other hand - you'd have to be stark raving mad!

Hi - sorry to gatecrash,...but would any of you be willing to chat to me on a separate thread about a couple of specific points on solicitor sole practitionr/locum/consultancy matters. I would be really grateful!
