Ashurst LLP – Global loans: an overview
Broadfield – Law that shapes lives from cities to the countryside: an inside look at planning, infrastructure and public law
From major urban redevelopments to renewable energy projects in rural communities, the law plays a vital role in shaping how we live, work and move. Our workshop will uncover how planning, infrastructure and public law influence the built and natural environments and how lawyers help clients navigate the complex legal frameworks that govern them.
You’ll gain an understanding of how these practice areas interact with government policy, local authorities, developers and the public. Working through a real-world scenario, you’ll explore the competing interests involved in major projects, consider how lawyers advise at every stage, and propose your own solutions to legal and practical challenges.
Our lawyers will share insights into their day-to-day work, demonstrating how law firms help make the projects that shape our towns, cities and countryside a reality. We’ll also be sharing details of our training contract and apprentice opportunities, as well as taking you through our application processes and providing tips to make your application stand out.
Michelmores LLP – Bounce back loans and repayment obligations
Debevoise & Plimpton LLP – Private equity and private funds
The world of private equity, although frequently featured in the financial and business media, can seem complex and impenetrable. Our workshop will explain the main features of this highly topical, sometimes controversial and financially powerful part of the financial services sector – and one of Debevoise’s core practice areas.
You’ll first hear what ‘private equity’ firms do and how they do it. Then we will explore the incentive structures and some of the key issues involved in a fund formation assignment. You’ll have an opportunity to evaluate and propose amendments to some headline terms. Our experienced lawyers will help you to navigate the negotiation process.
