Join us for this week's Commercial Awareness Compass, a free weekly virtual session designed to help you develop the commercial mindset top law firms are looking for.
What's on the agenda?
This week’s episode dives into Garfield AI, the UK’s first ever SRA-approved law firm run by artificial intelligence. Focused on debt recovery for SMEs, its approval marks a turning point for legal regulation, pricing models and professional responsibility. We unpack what this means for law firms, how it could change the client experience, and why aspiring (and practicing) lawyers need to understand the commercial and ethical implications.

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. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of how the story impacts the legal industry and beyond, equipping you with the insights needed to stand out in applications and interviews.
