ECONOMIC growth downgrades may lead to anxiety over a decline in the volume of corporate legal work, but RHTLaw Taylor Wessing managing partner Azman Jaafar is unfazed.

"The truth is we shouldn't be frightened by all these naysayers," he told BT in a recent interview. "Quite frankly, if there's a recession, I would redeploy people to watch out for insolvencies and restructuring work. It's really a question of finding the right moment to switch your focus into other areas."
