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.

Diversity at VWV
We aim to be a team which reflects the diversity of the communities and clients that we serve.
Our success is a reflection of the fulfilment of our people, not just professionally but also personally. That's why we work hard to create a supportive working environment for everyone. An environment that provides opportunities to bring ideas, encourages participation and recognises achievement. Our culture is approachable and inclusive, we pride ourselves on the warmth of our welcome.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is key to our firm's culture and is embedded throughout the business at every level through policies, processes, training and guidance. While creating an inclusive working environment requires a focussed direction, we are clear that everyone should have a sense of accountability and ownership in order to be able to drive business success.
VWV's employee-led ENGAGE Network plays a crucial role in bringing to life our approach to inclusion, raising awareness, and bringing colleagues together for events to connect and learn.
The ENGAGE Network's mission is to continue to encourage and promote the culture of inclusion and a sense of belonging at VWV, valuing every employee as an individual. Building on the brilliant progress in strengthening VWV's commitment to women's career progression, our Network has launched four new groups to give greater opportunities to champion causes that matter to our colleagues: LGBTQ+, Neurodiversity, Race and Religion.
