Tales abound of solicitors’ growing job dissatisfaction, so perhaps a new initiative by Welsh corporate powerhouse Leo Abse & Cohen should be applauded.

In a gesture intended to demonstrate how much the firm appreciates its staff, the partners arranged to send all its staff (yes, even the non fee earners!) a Valentine’s card and box of chocolates this year.
But the question is: will it be counter-productive? It’s unlikely to be much of a morale boost if the only Valentine’s card you receive comes from the boss.
