Invitation to MJLD members to join Liverpool Law Society Specialist Sub-Committees

Liverpool Law Society would like to encourage members of Merseyside Junior Lawyers Division to join our specialist sub-committees. These specialist sub-committees exist to enable exchange of information and views, to formulate responses to consultation papers and encourage debate on areas of mutual interest.

It is an opportunity for you to meet with your peers and also more experienced members of the legal profession and build your network. Forums, special meetings and events are sometimes organised as a result, in which wider participation from the Society’s members and beyond is encouraged.

These sub-committees cover a wide range of different areas of law including:

• Access to Justice;

• Civil Litigation;

• Criminal Practice;

• Family Business;

• Employment law;

• Non-contentious business;

• Regulatory

For more information on what is covered within each specialist committee, please visit our website here. These meetings are held bi-monthly or quarterly, usually over lunchtime with one or two exceptions.

The meetings mostly take place in the Meeting Room at Liverpool Law Society, Helix, Second Floor, Edmund Street, Liverpool, L3 9NY, occasionally at other city centre venues or via dial in.

To request to join a specialist committee, please provide the following details to committees@liverpoollawsociety.org.uk:

• Your name

• Firm where you work;

• Your role / level PQE;

• The sub-committee you would like to join; and

• A short description of why you would like to join that particular sub-committee.

We hope to see Merseyside JLD members registering their interest soon!
