Along with the traditional importance of accurate financial information, the growing relevance of computer technology, sophisticated management accounting and modern methods of practice administration mean that today's legal staff must remain up-to-date with all the latest developments, while at the same time maintaining the highest professional standards.
The LANI is the only organisation in Northern Ireland dedicated both to helping achieve this and at the same time encouraging the development of its members' skills through educational courses, training seminars, publications, exhibitions, advisory service and other membership facilities, as well as close liaisons with other sections of the legal community.
With successful legal practices being run on the lines of efficient businesses and the legal personnel market becoming increasingly competitive - can you or your staff really afford not to be members?
