> Working as a lawyer in the Bona Vacantia Division Peter Loosley “My name is Peter Loosley. I joined TSol in April 2001, having previously been a litigation partner in a small commercial firm in Holborn. My first three years in TSol were spent dealing with large commercial litigation cases for a variety of client Departments, including the Ministry of Defence. In June 2004 I moved to the Bona Vacantia Division as Head of the Companies Group. The Division deals with the property of dissolved companies, and those who die intestate with no surviving kin. The revenue generated by the Division in 2004/05 was £36.6 million. The Companies Group deals with in excess of 6,000 cases per year, and has the benefit of a sophisticated electronic case management system. The casework is very varied, and often involves complex and challenging legal and policy issues. Bona Vacantia is a unique and extremely interesting area of Government law, offering a large amount of autonomy in decision-making and direct dealings with the public.” |
