An accessible conversation about everything one may encounter on the road to the wig and gown.
Working from home, online mediation, nett zero disputes, paperless practicing, the Greener Pledge - the pandemic has highlighted many of these issues and had been a period of reflection for many. How does the charge to nett zero affect how we practice, how do we enforce this in different jurisdictions, what is sustainability at the Bar?
In this episode Ciara discusses all this and more with Marion Smith QC and Annie Mackley.
