A businessman's drive

Article Abstract:

John Heller is a senior partner at Hammond Suddards which is a law firm from Leeds, England, that has expanded to become a national player. The collapse of the UK housing market created work for the company which advises building societies on repossessions. Heller argues that clients should be given clear advice on which course to take with reasons, rather than being offered choices. Heller has plans to diversify and this could involve projects outside legal activities such as management consultancy, or there may be a move into tax work.
