The Gazette is asking solicitors to participate in a survey about how law firms are recovering from the economic crisis.

In association with the Gazette, Wesleyan for Lawyers, part of a financial services mutual, is conducting a profession-wide survey examining how the financial crisis has impacted law firms over the last 12 months; the steps taken by firms to spur recovery; and firms’ outlook for the next year.

Those completing the five-minute survey will be entered into a prize draw to win an Apple iPad. The survey closes on 23 August.

The Gazette is also conducting a second reader survey in conjunction with business growth consultancy Intrinsic Values, exploring attitudes to alternative business structures and changing career paths. The survey takes no more than five minutes to complete.

Findings from both surveys will appear exclusive to the Gazette in the coming months.
