The Lawyer's Companion and Diary 1890, and London and Provincial Law Directory for 1890

Description:

44th Annual Issue. The Lawyer's Companion and Diary was edited in the late Victorian period by J. Trustram, a barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, one of the four historic Inns of Court in London. The Lawyer's Companion and Diary was an annual publication that became indispensable to legal professionals, seamlessly combining a diary with a wealth of legal information: key principles, case law references, stamp duty tables, and other practical tools essential for running a lawyer’s office in this period. Lawyers could track appointments, correspondence, and financial matters all in one volume-a reflection of the organizational demands of the profession at the time. This particular copy is enriched with manuscript annotations by a Yorkshire-based lawyer, meticulously recording client appointments, fees received, and payments made. Such notes provide a fascinating glimpse into the daily life, workload, and financial management of a provincial legal practice in 1890.
