  • A needed introduction to the law around parking

    A great introduction to a surprisingly complex area of law. As somebody who doesn’t drive I had never considered how complicated parking can be and how much notice drivers must take of it. Also, on the back end, the issues that can arise for parking providers are numerous. Any issues that arise simply provide more work for lawyers :)
