Corporate tax

Virtually all commercial transactions have tax implications. Tax is thus an important practice area for any major law firm.

Crime

Criminal solicitors advise and appear in court on behalf of both accused persons and the prosecution.

Defamation/reputation management

In this area of legal practice, clients generally fall into two categories: the rich or famous and the media.

Dispute resolution

Sponsored by RPC. Commercial litigators represent and advise commercial clients when disputes arise from joint venture projects, civil fraud, commercial and banking transactions, corporate governance, financial services regulation and professional negligence.

Employment, pensions & incentives

Employment lawyers work across all areas of employment law, including handling discrimination complaints, staff restructuring and whistleblowing issues.

Environment

Sponsored by Osborne Clarke LLP. Issues such as biodiversity loss, climate change, the demand for global sustainability and the need for alternative energy sources make environmental laws more important than ever.

Family/matrimonial

Family lawyers deal with diverse issues including marriage, civil partnerships, cohabitation, separation, divorce, financial claims and pre and post-nuptial agreements.

Financial services

Following the UK’s exit from the European Union, the covid-19 pandemic and various financial scandals, there is always lots going on in this area.

Fraud

This is a fascinating field of practice suited to those with a nose for forensic detail.

Housing/landlord & tenant

Sponsored by Trowers & Hamlins LLP. Relationships between the owners and occupiers of properties, both residential and commercial, can be fraught with problems.

Insolvency/restructuring
