Unlock Your Commercial Awareness Potential
A parking fine might seem like an everyday inconvenience, but for private parking operators, it’s a commercial and legal minefield. Every time a driver enters a private car park, they are automatically entering into a contract – even if they don’t realise it. The terms and conditions displayed on signage dictate everything from parking fees to fines, and their enforceability determines whether a company profits or ends up in court. This may not help you fight your next parking ticket, but it will help you understand the wider context.
Join us for this week's The Commercial Awareness Compass, a free weekly virtual session designed to help you develop the commercial mindset top law firms are looking for.
Each Wednesday, a future trainee solicitor and an expert lawyer will guide you through one major news story, breaking it down from beginner to advanced levels.
