Good morning, good afternoon, good evening to all our readers.  Welcome to our October Newsletter.

“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” Ferris Bueller

It is a constant surprise how quickly our next Newsletter comes around.  This month we have been busy looking to the future.  We have been considering technology and how it can help our business and our clients and be used to enhance rather than hinder our clients’ experience of working with us.  We never want to lose our personal touch.  Often improved technology can lead to alienation but we firmly believe that we can make things better and use available technology to improve efficiency and service.  With this in mind our article LFBB & Thirdfort might be of interest and please watch this space in the coming months for more I.T. news.

Our friends at LFBB Financial Services continue to look after our clients and this month are getting us all to think carefully about how we might make investment decisions.  If you would like to talk to our team then please give us a call and we can arrange a meeting on the phone, via video call or in person.

If anything you read in this newsletter makes you think that you could do with a chat to any of us then please just give us a call on 0114 272 9721.  Also have a look at our website by clicking here for information that might help answer a question or two or give you even more to think about but we will never let our website be a substitute for a conversation.

If we have recently helped you with any legal work then please leave us some feedback here.

Have a fun Halloween and bonfire night, if that’s your thing.

Thanks for reading and ’til next time, everyone at LFBB Solicitors wishes you well.
