This is a one–day intensive Workshop designed specifically for lawyers who intend to set up their own law firms or join a partnership.
Invited speakers comprised senior practising lawyers and experts in their fields who presented on topics ranging from the Business of Legal Practice, Accounting and Taxation, Conveyancing, Civil Litigation to Insurance Coverage, and Lawyers’ Obligations and Privileges.

In addition, the participants had a sneak preview of LAWworks and were offered free registration for this unique e–learning and self–audit tool that tests your daily work culture and practice and is due to launch in early 2010 (Click here for more information, on LAWworks).
Feedback received from the participants was positive. The majority of the participants found the topics discussed relevant to their work and the speakers very helpful in answering their questions.
This Getting Started! Workshop was the final instalment for our 2009 series. For those who missed out, we will be back in 2010 and we look forward to seeing you then.
