The Industrialisation of the Legal Profession  The Perfect Storm and life after 6 th  October E R Goldsmith Senior Partner – Goldsmith Williams Chairman of the Conveyancing Association
Who am I and why am I qualified to speak to you today? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The conveyancing  market  as we know it.  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
HM Land Registry figures  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Other factors  An over supply of conveyancers?  Volume of conveyancing has dropped by 55% over the past few years.  Prices – remained static or even reduced over the last 30 years.  Technology and the industrialisation of the legal profession Something nasty in the woodshed .
The perfect storm ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
What are the lenders doing? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
What is the Law Society doing ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
There is good news Satisfaction rates for conveyancing is “stratospherically”  high at 93% fairly or very happy with the service* 51% of clients pick their solicitor either though having used them before or following a recommendation from someone they know* Receiving a recommendation from a friend and “specialising in conveyancing” are seen as more important than providing a cheap quote* The public are less likely to use a solicitor recommended by their estate agent if the agent will receive a commission as a result (although younger people and first time buyers are less like to be hostile to such a recommendation)* *Solicitors Regulation Authority survey of public attitudes toward conveyancing February 2009.
The  not so good news ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
What to do? Option 1 – Do nothing Option 2 – Retire Option 3 – Sell out Option 4 – Hive off your conveyancing practise.  Option 5 – Build it up.  Option 6 – Embrace the future and invent the future.
