Joining Adrian today is Ruben Perin, Commercial Director at Taylor Rose and an experienced conveyancing solicitor. Ruben enters the studio to explore the realities of modern property law and what it takes to thrive in a fast-moving legal landscape.

This conversation traces Ruben’s professional rise and reflects on some powerful industry truths along the way:

• How growing up with a structural engineer father sparked his early fascination with buildings, planning and property law;
• Why conveyancing demands a rare combination of legal precision, commercial pace and calm under pressure;
• How the hybrid firm model (with both consultants and employees) is helping Taylor Rose adapt to client needs and legal career trends;
• Ways that technology is reshaping onboarding, ID checks and file management, but legal judgment remains irreplaceable; and
• What makes a great lawyer in his eyes: hard work, sponge-like curiosity and taking ownership from day one.

And finally, stay tuned to hear why Ruben calls conveyancers “the rock stars of law” and why he believes more lawyers should be joining the profession, not leaving it.
