Family law: Life, litigation and real-world client work
What is it really like to practise family law? In this session, the BPP team will interview a panel of practising family lawyers to explore the realities of working in this challenging and deeply human area of practice. The discussion will cover the nature of the work, the skills required to succeed and the personal qualities that are particularly important when advising clients through significant life events. Students will gain a clearer understanding of the day-to-day experience of family lawyers and the routes into this rewarding specialism.

Mayer Brown Sustainability
Discover how Mayer Brown is actively working to reduce their environmental impact.
Mayer Brown places a strong emphasis on sustainability, guiding its internal and external operations. The firm is committed to minimising the ecological footprint stemming from its physical footprint and day-to-day office operations. Mayer Brown also maintains a conscientious approach to reducing non-essential business travel.
A commitment to ongoing enhancement underscores the firm's practices. Mayer Brown actively collaborates with legal sector networks, including the Law Firm Sustainability Network in the US and the Legal Sustainability Alliance in the UK, to share best practices and insights.
In pursuit of its sustainability objectives, Mayer Brown has established Sustainability Committees in its primary offices. These committees serve to disseminate information about firm-wide and localised activities, and they take the lead in integrating ecological and environmental awareness into the firm's operations. Often, initiatives originate at the grassroots office level, fostering an environment where colleagues can raise inquiries and offer suggestions directly to their local Sustainability Committee or through dedicated channels.
