The latest in Legal Cheek’s new autumn 2020 series of Secrets to Success virtual events — held in association with The University of Law (ULaw) — focuses on the North of England legal market.

Taking place on Monday 9 November, from 4pm to 6:30pm, the virtual event features lawyers from the Leeds and Manchester offices of leading law firms Pinsent Masons, Squire Patton Boggs, and a barrister from top northern commercial set Kings Chambers, as well as legal education experts from ULaw’s campuses across the North of England.

It begins with a discussion chaired by a Legal Cheek journalist, who will put questions to the panel about key commercial awareness issues, including opportunities arising for law firms in the wake of Covid-19. The speakers will also be encouraged to discuss their career journeys and advise students hoping to follow a similar path.

After the panel discussion there will then be virtual networking with the speakers, trainees from their firms and some of ULaw’s campus ambassadors.
