Upcoming events: Welcome to the Brown Bag series for 2024. The Brown Bag series of seminars is open to all but aimed predominantly at less experienced practitioners. The aim of the series is to enable such practitioners to learn from the judiciary and senior members of the profession about topical procedural and substantive issues in the law. This year’s offering follows that format. The LRF has arranged for two members of the High Court bench to share their experiences. In addition, four seminars will involve acknowledged subject-matter experts talking about: class actions, regulatory law, intellectual property, and climate change litigation. We encourage firms to support their more junior solicitors to attend these seminars. The seminars will be held over the lunch period of 1pm to 2pm in an informal setting at one of six leading law firms in Auckland. This year we have seven outstanding speakers across six sessions: Hon Justice Simon Moore date to be advised Court Etiquette Hon Justice Wilkinson-Smith 21st August 2024 First impressions Jenny Cooper KC and Simon Ladd 18th September 2024 Smith v Fonterra - climate change litigation Kevin Glover 25th September 2024 Introduction to IP David Friar 15th October 2024 Litigation funding/class actions Brian Dickey 30th October 2024 Regulatory Law To register for the event please click on the link edenevent.eventsair.com/lrfbpb24/reg From here you will have 3 price options: * 1 seminar * 3 seminars * all 6 seminars If you wish to bulk purchase a number of the seminars to share across your team please contact Julia julia@legalresearch.org.nz for assistance.
