Lawyers will work over Christmas if they’re paid to do so. If there’s pressure and desire to get things sorted next week the then there’s no reason it can’t. The only sticking point will be money transfers on the bank holidays.
Why would Lawyers work over Christmas, especially if money cannot be transferred on Bank Holidays? Moreover, they are not emotionally involved and they would rather spend Christmas with their families wouldn't they?

Lots of people work over Xmas - for lawyers on this, if they do, it will be because of deadlines and money.

The latter point some will, some won't. We're probably not talking about needing to spend all day every day over the next 4/5 days on it - more likely a few hours, send it on to the next person in the chain.

Yes they generally work the hours required to deliver for the client (this from personal experience applies to in house legals in the private sector as well.). Can be all nighters, weekends on occasions. Not always, of course, and generally good planning avoids the need. The caveat is this is for getting critical contracts/commercial contracts over the line where there is a immovable deadline for some reason- sales quarters, years end, delivery lead times, go live dates etc. etc.

I avoid the public sector so maybe its different. maybe deadlines slip and things just don't get delivered, and there are no ensuing consequences. Probably in the private sector the remuneration is much better so the motivation to deliver is much higher..
 
Here’s the thing chaps, I am going to miss the Boxing Day match as I am on hols. But just arrived in Tortola, British Virgin Islands, which is where allegedly Ron rat keeps ill gotten gains!
I will have a root around and see if I can find it. If I come up with anything I will send it to Shrimperzone as a donation. That should help
