Dear Friends,
I have tried to dig deep into internet to learn more about the "Naked Law". As per the net the "Naked Law" in a blog of "Mills & Reeve", which is supposed to be amongst the UK’s largest full service law firms with offices in Birmingham, Cambridge, London and Norwich.
This firm has more than 59,000 search entries on Google and appears to be genuine organization as evident from the news reports on the net, though the interview part appears to be more of a publicity oriented work, as already advised by Mr. Gene van Troyer & Mr. C.M. Nautiyal. Thus there may not be any harm in giving the interviews.
For the information of the members, I am quoting the website details from the web site of the the firm "Mills & Reeve".

They are going to take several months for the programme.
