Event starts on Wednesday 14th October at 11:30 GMT
Commercial lawyers work at the heart of business, helping organisations manage relationships, negotiate agreements and navigate risk. But what does the work actually involve? This session explores the role of a commercial lawyer, the types of clients and matters you could work on and how legal advice connects with wider business objectives. Hear from professionals about their day-to-day work, the skills that matter most and what attracts lawyers to the practice area. You’ll leave with a clearer picture of whether commercial law could be for you.
