Quote from the Chair

'The Legal Practice Division brings to life the global voice of the legal profession in a number of ways: specialist conferences throughout the world, an abundance of publications aimed at specific practice areas, projects aimed at sharing best practices and streamlining cross-jurisdictional practice, and working groups submitting comments to shape international legislation creation and reform.

Members of the Legal Practice Division have a unique opportunity to join the dialogue and to have a direct effect on the state of the profession in their particular area of practice, while keeping up to date on the latest developments and participating in a powerful network of over 30,000 members across the globe.'
