    with the crime rate rising don’t think lawyers will be affected

    I would say bankruptcy law is probably booming because of the credit crunch.

    Pressures faced by law firms – same as always – hiring good talent and making them work long hours :)

    Predictions – there will still be many people that want to be lawyers / solicitors / barristers so lots of people are going to be going into debt…
