We are looking for enthusiastic speakers who are committed to preparing high-standard talks and to giving us their own views on their selected
subject matter, as well as (ideally) preparing a detailed (but not necessarily long) full-text paper to accompany the talk. If there are any topics / cases
of which you have had particular experience in the last twelve months, we would particularly welcome your input (although we acknowledge the
confines of confidentiality in many such circumstances).
There are lots of opportunities for lawyers of all levels and the Committee is willing to consider alternative formats, such as:
o30 minute slots (as an alternative to the usual 45 minute slots)
osessions with more than one speaker (for example, a less experienced speaker could join forces with a more experienced speaker)
opanel sessions
