From Studying Law to Employability: What Clients Want and What Firms Now DemandS0.18The legal market has changed dramatically. Clients arrive informed, expect advice rather than information, and evaluate lawyers as service providers. At the same time, law firms now expect graduates to bring communication skills, commercial awareness, visibility, and adaptability alongside legal knowledge.
This talk, from Craig Sharpe, a lawyer and marketing consultant with over 25 years experience, who works with firms including Taylor Rose, provides students with a realistic view of the modern legal job market.
Craig explains what’s changed in the legal profession (and why knowing about this is crucial), why working in and marketing for different areas of law such as family law or commercial law can be radically different, how to create your own opportunities and stand out when applying to law firms. |

Seminar: Ecuadorian Constitutional Rights of Nature in Natural Resources Conflicts and Litigation – Malcolm RoggeS2.09In this seminar, I draw on field work and participatory action research undertaken in Ecuador over three decades to characterise the emerging practice of constitutional rights of nature litigation in Ecuador as a new species of business and human rights (BHR) litigation. I show how the historical and conceptual roots of private law BHR litigation efforts originating in Ecuador are intermingled with the roots of contemporary rights of nature litigation. |

Seminar: A ‘Green’ International Monetary Fund: Implications for Member State Rights and Obligations Relating to Climate Change – Johanna LorenzoS.2.09, Social Sciences BuildingIn the face of growing evidence that climate change and its various adverse impacts have economic origins and consequences, international financial institutions (IFIs) have started paying more attention to environmental issues. The ‘greening’ of the International Monetary Fund (IMF; Fund) – in its current incorporation of climate-related concerns into its legal mandate – is thus neither surprising nor necessarily suspect. |
