Having posed some questions about this blog's future a couple of weeks ago, I am delighted to be able to announce the next stage for Nearly Legal. First and most importantly, you will notice case notes, news and opinion pieces by other people appearing from...
Unsurprisingly, the papers and blawgers have been all over the story of Kylie McGrath, detained under the Mental Health Act after breaking into the home of solicitor Emma Eardley, whom McGrath had been stalking for over two years. McGrath began as Eardley's...
Or at least after last week's tsunami of housing cases, it is quiet. This is good because I am a) perversely very busy, what with everyone else being on holiday, and b) behind the serene exterior of the blog, there is intense plotting and organising going...
October, new post qualification job and all, is going to be something of a crunch point for this blog. Time, which has been very tight for the last few months, is simply not going to be available to keep Nearly Legal going in the same way. There are three...
I have been reading Usefully Employed's blog pretty much since it started. It was always an interesting read on employment matters and broader topics. But I have to say that since March, with a redesign, some added features like an EAT decisions feed, and...
A lovely break, thanks, which was spent mostly next to, on, in or under the Mediterranean. Two things made me particularly joyful: getting in a dive; and discovering we were sipping cocktails in the footsteps of Terry Thomas, who is Nearly Legal's style guru...

I have been and remain extremely busy, but thankfully there has been nothing of significance to post about. I'm toying with a summary of the fascinating and now very, very lengthy comment thread on the Malcolm post, but that too will have to wait. While I am...
Having discovered that I am the receipient of John Bolch's coveted post of the month award for the last Naughty Step post, it seemed like time for another. Given that the award was only received due to the unreasonable delay of Geeklawyer in delivering his...
Or strictly speaking the ad for me. I'm due to qualify at the end of September and so I'm hunting for a newly qualified post. Anyone interested in employing an experienced, enthusiastic, dedicated and, casting false modesty to the winds, frankly damn good...
I'm afraid that detailed comments on Weaver and Malcolm, let alone anything else will have to wait until the weekend, just in case anyone was looking for them. Actual and very urgent casework has intervened, involving quite the most ridiculous reason given...
I managed to miss an anniversary, a bit like my own birthdays these days. Nearly Legal was two years old on the first of June. Two years! That is positively middle aged in internet years, fittingly making the blog roughly as old as I am. It has been quite a...
