LAPG Conference 2019

We are proud to be sponsoring the Legal Aid Practitioners Group Conference again this year. This year’s event is taking place on Friday the 4^th of October in Birmingham at the Aston Conference Centre.

LAPG is a leading representative body for the legal aid sector and does invaluable work fighting for a legal aid system to protect all the vulnerable in society as well as rewarding and recognising the hard work that Legal Aid Lawyers undertake. The annual conference is part of the ongoing training and support that LAPG provides for Legal Aid Lawyers.

There will be a wide variety of workshops and presentations throughout the day all of which are deigned to help practitioners navigate the legal aid scheme. The conference will also focus on the Ministry of Justice’s plans to reform legal aid policy. Useful and practical information will be shared to all in attendance throughout the day. The LAA will also be in attendance and will be running CCMS drop-in sessions

We will be presenting at two specialist costs workshops. Our Associate and South East Regional Manager Laura Bennett will be presenting alongside our Legal Aid Training Coordinator Kenny Shealey in a civil and family costs masterclass. The sessions will focus on costs recovery, efficient billing and maximisation of costs.

Our team members will be present on the day and happy to assist with any costs related queries.

Finally, be sure to enter our raffle prize draw for the chance to win 1 of 3 exciting prizes!
