Meeting the People
Vincent Harrington, Solicitor, Roscommon, David R. Pigot, President of The Law Society and Chris Mahon,
Director of Professional Services, Law Society on the Law Society's stand at the recent Brighter Homes Ex-
hibition at the RDS in Dublin.
The number of visitors to the stand was substantially up on last year and the primary interest was reportedly
in Wills, with a particularly strong demand for the Society's leaflet on the subject. Several helpful sugges-
tions were made by members of the public who considered that such subjects as Investments, Labour Law
and Citizens' Rights should be covered by the Society's leaflets. These suggestions will be considered by
the Public Relations Committee which is reviewing leaflet publication on an ongoing basis.
Very few visitors expressed criticism or grievances against the profession. These matters are also to be
considered by the PR Committee.
Sixty-six solicitors, from all parts of the country manned the stand continuously throughout the exhibition.
Mr. Ken Murphy headed the PR Committee's organising group for the project.
