Queensland Law Society launches inaugural Specialist Practice Conference

By Media Officer

Experienced practitioners will come together in October 2026 for the inaugural Specialist Practice Conference, a new three-day event featuring twelve specialist practice areas under a single conference program.

Running from 7–9 October 2026, the conference marks a new chapter for specialist learning and connection, where practitioners from across the profession can share expertise, build relationships and gain fresh perspectives.

The new format delivers access to leading technical content across twelve specialist streams, alongside broader networking opportunities, cross-disciplinary insights and greater value for firms and practitioners working across multiple areas of law.
