Within two weeks of Royal Assent our team of 40 lawyers, will explain the effect, purpose and likely application of
new law. On occasion this may take longer due to the size of the Statute or late publication of the official document.

Daniel is the General Editor of the Westlaw UK Annotated Statutes. He is also the editor of Craies on Legislation, Stroud's Judicial Dictionary and Jowitt's Dictionary of English Law. Daniel was a full-time civil servant from 1988 to 2008, starting in the Lord Chancellor's Department and moving to the Office of the Parliamentary Counsel in 1991; in the PCO he drafted Acts of Parliament in most fields of law, including tax, crime, public law, and commercial law. In 2009 he became a part-time civil servant in order to have more time to concentrate on Westlaw and his other writing and professional commitments. He lives in London with his wife and children. He collects old legal documents as a hobby, but cannot keep them at home because his wife says they're smelly.
