Bespoke Ethics Sessions

Our solicitors are available to present Bespoke Ethics Sessions to firms, in-house, pro bono and government. These sessions count towards your CPD requirements. 

If you are a member firm, the 1-hour session is complimentary (limit of 2 complimentary sessions per CPD year) while the cost for a non-member firm is $740 + GST.

A précis of possible topics can be found below. However with appropriate notice, the Centre can tailor the session to your specific needs / audience.

Please note that these sessions are separate to the QLS Legal Ethics Course and do not apply to admission or disciplinary matters.
