Amid the welter of coverage following David Bowie’s recent death, it emerged that the musician was once a litigation support paralegal. In the late sixties, he worked for Legastat, a company still operating just behind the Royal Courts of Justice in Carey Street. Remarkably, Bowie’s involvement with the law did not stop there: he also made a contribution to the complex arena of securitisation, with his involvement with “Bowie Bonds” in 1997.
