On this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Construction Legal principal Jessica Rippon about how and why she developed a passion for the construction sector, the issues she’s seen in the industry that need addressing, changes that should be implemented, how she looks to serve the sector and why boutique law firms need to expand into more holistic offerings.

Ms Rippon also details the broader market challenges spurring the need for such holistic approaches to legal and commercial services, what such challenges mean for lawyers on the ground and how she is looking to develop younger practitioners, trends on the horizon that lawyers in construction need to be across, how boutiques can be better advocates for change, and why she remains so motivated to get out of bed in the morning to work with the sector she operates in.
