This was my first time attending the Lawyer Summit 0 and I took a lot from it. It was the variety of the programme which struck me most – quite unlike other conferences I have attended. I thought the sessions were of a high quality and everyone was willing to share and contribute to the discussion. I would recommend this event to all in-house lawyers.
