๐Ÿšจ It's here.

Today, we're proud to launch the Welsh Legal Sector Transformation Report 2026, produced in partnership with Legal News Wales.

We surveyed 51 Welsh SME law firms and in-house teams to understand what's really happening across the sector - from financial performance and pricing to recruitment, technology, AI and the future of the traditional law firm model.

The result is a snapshot of a sector that is changing, adapting and looking ahead.

This report explores the challenges Welsh firms are facing, the opportunities emerging across the sector, and what firms themselves think needs to happen next.

๐Ÿ“– Read the full report and discover the findings for yourself.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and shared their experiences with us.

Something is coming for the Welsh legal sectorโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘€

We've been working behind the scenes with Legal News Wales on something we've been looking forward to sharing.

We wanted to find out what's really happening inside Welsh law firms - what's changing, what's challenging firms, and what the future could look like for the sector.

The result is our Welsh Legal Sector Transformation Report 2026.

๐Ÿ“… Launching 6 October

We'll be sharing the report and some of the conversations it sparks over the coming weeks.

For nowโ€ฆ we'll keep the findings under wraps. ๐Ÿคซ

A week on from the ILFM Annual Conference, and we're still thinking about the conversations.

Last Wednesday, Osprey Approach was proud to sponsor the ILFM Annual Conference at The Law Society - bringing together legal finance and compliance professionals from across the sector.

And one thing was clear: legal finance is changing - and the role of finance teams is changing with it.

From discussions around AML supervision, client money, sanctions, to the wider challenges of operational change, leadership, resilience and building confidence through change, there was plenty for firms to think about.

The conference theme, "From Compliance to Confidence: Leading legal finance through change", felt particularly fitting. Compliance isn't standing still, and neither are the expectations placed on the people responsible for keeping firms financially sound, compliant and ready for what comes next.

But perhaps one of the biggest takeaways from the day was the value of getting people together.

We had some fantastic conversations at the Osprey stand - catching up with familiar faces, meeting new people and hearing first-hand what's keeping legal finance teams busy right now.

A huge thank you to the ILFM, all the speakers, fellow sponsors, exhibitors and everyone who came along and made it such a brilliant day.

And to everyone who stopped by the Osprey stand - thank you. It was great to see you.

Until next time!

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ New episode: From grind firm to freedom firm

What if growing your law firm isn't really about generating more revenue?

In episode 37 of Empowering Law Firm Leaders, Michelle Peters, business growth strategist and founder of The Business Instructor, joins us to explore what it really takes to build a law firm that delivers profit, freedom and sustainability.
Together, they unpack:

๐Ÿ”น Why rising fee income doesn't always mean rising profit
๐Ÿ”น The three biggest profit leaks affecting SME law firms
๐Ÿ”น Why undercharging can quietly drain profitability
๐Ÿ”น The shift from fee earner to CEO
๐Ÿ”น How to identify whether your firm has an attract, convert or maximise problem

Michelle's message is clear: being a great lawyer and building a great law firm are two different skills.

If you're a law firm leader who wants the business to work for you, rather than the other way around, this episode is well worth a listen.

"The siloes in data create frustration, inefficiencies, and friction."

That was one of the standout insights shared by CJ Anderson during our recent webinar on legal data and operational visibility.

Many firms have access to huge amounts of data, but struggle to use it effectively because information is spread across systems, teams, and spreadsheets.

In this webinar, we discuss:
๐Ÿ“Œ The biggest reporting challenges facing law firms
๐Ÿ“Œ Why better data foundations matter
๐Ÿ“Œ How firms can gain clearer visibility across their business

Plus, a live demonstration of Osprey Analytics.

๐Ÿš€Small steps lead to big impact, especially when it comes to legal tech

For SME law firms, success is about taking a more intentional, strategic approach.

What stands out:
๐Ÿ”นStart with clarity - define what success looks like before choosing technology
๐Ÿ”นTreat tech as a business project, not just an IT initiative
๐Ÿ”นInvolve your people early to drive adoption and real change
๐Ÿ”นFocus on incremental improvements, not 'big bang' rollouts
๐Ÿ”นTest, learn, and adapt quickly - small wins build momentum

We're delighted to be sponsoring the ILFM Annual Conference 2026! ๐ŸŽ‰

Taking place on Wednesday 23 September at The Law Society in London, this year's theme is:
From Compliance to Confidence: Leading legal finance through change.

With regulation, technology and the demands on law firm finance teams continuing to evolve, it promises to be a valuable day packed with practical insight, industry expertise and plenty of opportunities to connect.

We're particularly looking forward to hearing how firms can turn the challenges of change into opportunities for greater efficiency, confidence and performance.

As proud sponsors, the Osprey Approach team will be there to meet fellow legal professionals, share ideas and talk about how technology can help firms work smarter.
