Back To Council ⚖️💥
Induction done and looking forward to being back on @TheLawSociety Council
The journey to the capital was nostalgic, not just of my previous time on Council but also of my time in private practice travelling to and from head offices
💥 In-House Solicitors face a lot of unique challenges compared to private practice, these can differ across sectors
💥 As an In-House Solicitor in the public sector, in a police force and outside of London it’s important for Council to have insights across the profession
Big thank you to @TheLawSociety staff and Council for organising and running the day. Special thank you to Nick for the tour!
Watch this space for all things The Law Society!
➡️ If you’re an In-House Solicitor and would like to get in touch, feel free to message me directly.

Great to see a lively debate style event at @Trowers during Birmingham Tech Week.
