About this Event

What This Is

Some lawyers never seem to chase work. It finds them, through recommendations from colleagues, clients and peers, often before they walk into the room. This session brings together voices from across the referral economy to talk about how that reputation is actually built, and what every lawyer in private practice can take from it.



What You'll Leave With
  1. A clearer view of what makes people refer work, from the people who do the referring
  2. Real examples of how reputation gets built, and what tends to get missed
  3. A few things you can start doing the following week
  4. A room of senior associates from other London firms, and time to talk to them
