🪓 All rise… and mind the axes!

For our quarterly social, we swapped legal briefs for bullseyes at Lumberjaxs Axe Throwing Nuneaton based in Attleborough.

First came some expert tuition from Coggy and his team which included a safety briefing, followed by lessons in throwing one-handed and then two-handed. Coggy made it look easy, but we quickly discovered that axe throwing is much harder than it looks!

Then, armed with questionable nicknames and newfound confidence, the competition began. ⚖️

There were some impressive throws, plenty of misses and a few performances best described as “mitigating circumstances”.

The final didn’t quite live up to the hype, with the axes doing their best to avoid the target. But our Head of Accounts, Phil Invernizzi, came out victorious! Having scored the most points overall, the evidence was firmly in his favour. 👑

The verdict? A worthy winner, a brilliant evening and plenty of laughs. No grounds for appeal, although some of us may request a retrial!

And if you’re wondering why the axes were out for Rachel in the last photo… she’s soon leaving us for pastures new outside the legal world! All in good fun, of course with no axe to grind, just our best wishes for her next chapter.

Thanks to Coggy and everyone at Lumberjaxs for a fantastic team social.

Case closed. 🪓

✨ Eternal Lights 2026 ✨

We are proud once again to be supporting Eternal Lights, Devall & Son Family Funeral Directors’ annual memorial service, held in partnership with Mary Ann Evans Hospice.

📅 Sunday 6th December 2026
📍 Attleborough Green, Nuneaton

Eternal Lights is a special opportunity for our community to come together to remember and celebrate the lives of loved ones who are no longer with us. It is a moving occasion of reflection, remembrance and togetherness at what can be a particularly difficult time of year.

As part of the service, you are warmly invited to submit a photo tribute to a loved one, which will be included in the memorial video shown on a large outdoor screen during the service.

A minimum donation of £20 per tribute is kindly requested, with every penny going directly to support the wonderful work of Mary Ann Evans Hospice and the care it provides to local people and their families.

Our sincere thanks go to Devall & Son Family Funeral Directors and Mary Ann Evans Hospice for once again bringing our community together for this meaningful occasion. We are privileged to play a small part in supporting Eternal Lights.

👨‍👩‍👧 Social Services involved with your family? Know what happens next.

If Social Services become involved with your family, it can be difficult to know what the process means or what you should do next.

Our latest blog explains some of the key stages of Social Services involvement, including:

• Child in Need Plans
• Child Protection Plans and Conferences
• The Public Law Outline (PLO) process
• PLO and pre-proceedings meetings
• Care proceedings
• When Social Services may seek to remove a child
• When legal aid may be available

Getting legal advice at an early stage can help you understand the Local Authority’s concerns, your legal rights and the steps you may need to take.

At LDJ Solicitors, our experienced Family Law team can provide advice and support throughout the process.

Read our latest blog to find out what happens when Social Services are involved with your family and when you should seek legal advice:

Your support means so much to us and to the families and friends who come together each year to honour, remember and celebrate the lives of those we have loved and lost.
