CASE STUDIES/REFERENCES

Top 20 International Law Firm

We are pleased to provide this reference for Colin Taylor of Prime Professions Limited who has been retained by our Firm to assist in raising awareness of risk issues within the Firm.

Colin has made presentations to our Partners, qualified case handlers and support staff in our UK offices and will make similar presentations in our offices in the Middle East.

His presentations have been very well received by those who attended them and the feedback from attendees is extremely positive. The presentations have dealt with risk issues on a practical rather than a theoretical or philosophical basis and were of immediate relevance to all attendees which, given the divergence of experience and roles, was impressive.

Colin identified how negligence claims and client complaints arise and gave practical examples of how they can be avoided. As a result of the presentations, attendees were able to identify how they individually might take steps to minimise the risk of claims against the Firm. The message that Colin conveyed is that managing risk is the responsibility of all and all have a role to play.

Colin's delivery was engaging and he caught, and retained, the interest of his audience.

A National Insurance Broker

''Please accept my sincere thanks for the risk management seminars provided to all our key staff across the country. Prime provided us with valuable guidance that was of immediate interest to all attendees. They managed to keep everyone interested from start to finish and we have been delighted with the feedback we have had. I would not hesitate to recommend Prime to any other professional firm looking to raise their awareness of operational risk - outstanding."

Senior Partner Large Regional Law Firm

"Risk management? - boring? Well not any more! Two great presentations that not only gave everyone precisely the information that they needed but kept them interested throughout. Your offer to come back was seen as a promise and not a threat. There must be a magic recipe that you can share with me some time."

An International Corporate Service Provider and Trust Manager

"We have been delighted with Prime's service. They have delivered everything they promised - and more. They have spent time understanding our business and are a pleasure to deal with. They carried out a conceptual review on our previous Professional Indemnity, Crime and Directors' and Officers' liability insurances and exceeded our expectations in securing bespoke policies that truly reflect our business activities .They have also provided us with excellent risk management advice and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Prime."

Risk & Compliance Partner Large Regional Law Firm

"Just a follow up thank you for the risk awareness sessions, which you manfully provided to what turned out to be a high percentage of our total fee earners and which have been very well received."

Typical feedback has been:

"I thought the speaker was excellent and kept the whole group engaged for the whole period...it was pitched at the right level and backs up and strengthens everything that our compliance partner has been telling us for the last few years...."

"I thought the course was very good, not at all what I was expecting (it was much better) the speaker was very good and therefore I think I have retained more information."

Managing Partner, Large City Law Firm

"Prime Professions has been working on our behalf as our professional indemnity insurance broker for the past few years. We have found their personnel extremely efficient and consistently to have provided us with a good service.

We have had various discussions with their representatives about risk management. In addition to meetings that we have had with them and the advice they have given us, we have also recently organised a firm-wide training session presented by Colin Taylor of Prime Professions. This particular session was excellent. The information was presented in an effective and engaging way. Colin is an extremely good presenter and his abundant use of humour helped get the message home. He also managed to keep the audience absorbed and interested throughout the presentation. On the basis of this, we have asked Prime Professions to provide us with further training sessions going forward."

"The sessions went down extremely well. A large number of partners and assistants said that it was the best such session they have been to because it was given by somebody who had actual practical knowledge of what can go wrong and whilst it is a very depressing subject you interspersed it with humour which was excellent."

Large City Law Firm

"I have been in practice for many years, including a spell as managing partner of a large London firm, and I found Colin Taylor's session for our lawyers and staff today far and away the most engaging and valuable risk management training I have attended."
