Business continuity planning
The problem
Solicitors are put off business continuity planning by the apparent time consuming complexity, and often don't know where to start. A Business Continuity Plan is a Lexcel requirement.
It's easy to see why a practice should be prepared in advance to deal with events that might otherwise seriously disrupt their service to clients or even threaten the future of their business, such as fire, flood, burglary or epidemic.
In fact many practices have no plan at all whilst others have a plan that wouldn't work in reality and doesn't meet Lexcel requirements.
