Professional Practices Handbook 6th Edition
Smith & Williamson, in association with Maurice Turnor Gardner
A practical and wide-ranging guide, the Professional Practices Handbook, has been fully revised to meet the business needs of any managing partner.
Bloomsbury Professional is pleased to announce the publication of the Sixth Edition of the Professional Practices Handbook.
Whether they be small, medium or large, professional practices exhibit many different styles of management. Yet there is very little literature available on the practical aspects of running one. This handbook is designed to be of use to a broad range of individuals involved in the management of practices, including senior and managing partners, finance partners and other partners as well as those considering partnership.
Written by industry experts from Smith & Williamson, the accountancy and financial services group, and law firm Maurice Turnor Gardner, this is an invaluable guide providing detailed and authoritative advice on all business areas affecting today’s professional practice.
The sixth edition addresses:
- The widespread adoption of LLP status and use of corporate entities by professional practices
- Updated model partnerships and LLP agreements
- External investment and the implications of the Legal Services Act 2007
- Significant tax changes – updated to include the provisions of the 2010 Finance Acts
- An analysis of the changing environment for retirement planning by partners
A professional practice is a living entity that develops and succeeds through the skills and abilities of its people. The Professional Practices Handbook is for all those who wish to ensure the success of their firm.
