Young Lawyers' Support Group

During the course of 2011, the Society examined a number of initiatives as part of its evaluation of the “Health and Wellbeing” of the profession. We recognise that in some instances a tailored response depending on individual circumstances may be needed.

With that in mind, the Society, with the support of the Young Lawyers’ Committee, has established the “Young Lawyers’ Support Group”. This “group” comprises 19 selected practitioners who have agreed to assist where possible “young lawyers” who may feel the need for some independent guidance from an experienced colleague.
