SUMMARY:Yorkshire Union Law Societies Special Event – The Future of the Solicitors indemnity Fund with the SRA – 27th September 2021 2-3pm
DESCRIPTION:Monday 27 September\, 2-3pm \nVirtual meeting with the SRA to discuss post six-year run off cover \nWe have pleasure to announce that we have managed to secure a meeting with the SRA for Yorkshire Solicitors to discuss the Post run off cover for solicitors which was to be withdrawn but is now subject to a 12 month extension whilst the SRA considers its future . \nThis is a vital opportunity for yorkshire solicitors to make clear what the implications would be of the loss of the fund and on the futures of solicitors working in private practice and importantly the impact on the public . \nThe SRA have agreed to meet with us and consider the issue it is an opportunity not to be missed . \nSRA Descirption of the Issue \nPost six year run off cover (PSYROC) is currently provided by the Solicitors Indemnity Fund (SIF) as additional protection to solicitors and their clients\, to supplement the mandatory six year run off cover that SRA regulated law firms we are required to obtain under the Professional Indemnity Insurance rules. \nThis cover was due to end on 30 September 2021. At a meeting on 8 June the SRA Board decided to extend the provision of PSYROC until September 2022. Having received the necessary confirmation from SIF Limited (the company managing the fund) that the extension is affordable\, the extension has now taken effect. \nThe SRA is now putting in place a programme of work to explore whether there is an ongoing place for PSYROC in its regulatory arrangements for the profession\, and if so\, how this might be funded. This meeting is an opportunity to discuss this work in more detail\, and to feed in our views prior to consultation later this year. \nThis Meeting will take place via Microsoft Teams on 27th September at 2pm and we would like you to invite you to join this important meeting .  \nPlease email mark@jordansllp.com and we will send you the teams invite which the SRA is providing

SUMMARY:Training/networking group for junior lawyers - How to be self-confident in setting boundaries - Harrogate Law Society - 17.09.21 1230 - 2pm
DESCRIPTION:Harrogate and District Law Society are inviting Junior Lawyers  to their bi-monthly lunchtime training/networking group for junior lawyers (and those who work with them) run by Ann Page. Places are on a first come first served basis . \nFor now\, it is taking place on zoom but they very much hope to transition to in person meetings so that we can have a proper catch up if there is the interest. If you’re looking to progress your career\, it’s likely you will be feeling the pressure to bring in referrals. The aim of this group is to provide a relaxed and supportive environment to support each other and build connections. These sessions are not only great for evidencing your continuing competency but also to show your Firm/Company that you are being proactive at developing yourself and bringing in work. \nThis month’s session is on such an important topic given the pressures on practitioners and the impact that our work can have on our emotional health: \n*** How to be self-confident in setting boundaries *** \nCost: £10 per person payable direct to Ann Page \nThe cost of joining a commercial lawyer support group by other coaches can be in the region of £1695+ per annum. Ann is kindly offering this special deal for members of HDLS so make the most of it! \nWhat did attendees of the last junior session say? “It is amazing how much you learn in the timeframe and it is information that you can start utilizing immediately afterwards.” \nPlease share with the relevant individuals at your firm and your contacts and register your interest by emailing Ann at: ann@yorkshirecoursesforlawyers.co.uk by Friday 10 September 2021. \nhttps://www.yorkshirecoursesforlawyers.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/How-to-be-self-confident-in-setting-boundaries-at-work.pdf”

SUMMARY:Tell it to the Judge - Leeds Law Society 9th September 10-13pm
DESCRIPTION:Tell it to the Judge Workshop\nThursday 9th September 2021\nTime: 10:00 – 13:00\nPrice:\n£75.00 + VAT members\n£100.00 + VAT non-members \nFollowing the fantastic reception of last year’s ‘Tell it to the Judge’\, the society is delighted to invite back esteemed public speaking trainer\, Emma Taylor\, to deliver more sessions. \n‘Tell it to the Judge’ is a workshop that equips solicitors who speak in court with the public speaking skills required to present clear and compelling arguments. It’s a ‘must-attend’ for recently trained lawyers\, solicitors who have moved into advocate roles and all diligent lawyers who don’t relish the limelight. \nThe workshop not only teaches participants how to arrange and develop a persuasive speech\, it also imparts vocal and physical techniques\, thereby boosting courtroom presence along with confidence. By the end of the workshop\, delegates will know how to: \nArrange a persuasive speech that flows\nEdit material to avoid pointless repetition / waffle\nIntroduce an analogy to reinforce an argument\nFeel confident and composed\nSight-read\, so they can make quality eye-contact when reading\nManage adrenaline\nUse pace effectively\nEnunciate clearly \n‘ Speaker \nEmma Taylor is a public speaking trainer who has successfully coached MPs\, councillors\, CEOs\, solicitors\, lecturers and entrepreneurs for over 15 years. She is a trained actor and also works as a scriptwriter. She brings elements of these disciplines to her coaching. Her workshops are noted for being highly enjoyable\, something that she’s very proud of. \nWhat Our Members Say \n“I desperately needed help with my advocacy skills. I knew I wasn’t representing my clients well enough. Emma taught me how to arrange my arguments and sight-read my statement which has made a hugely positive difference. I’m now working on my voice and memory techniques with her so I can appear all the more accomplished in court.” \n“After just a couple of sessions\, I was confidently using the techniques Emma taught me in court. I felt so much more eloquent and polished and my new public speaking skills have not gone unnoticed – fellow barristers have complimented me on mitigations!”

SUMMARY:The York Legal Walk - 28th June 5.30pm
DESCRIPTION:Why do we walk?\nThe need for free legal advice centres has grown in the past few years. The recession has increased poverty and reduced support services. Meanwhile funding for the advice centres themselves has reduced. \nThe organisations we support: \n\nPrevent families being made homeless\nPrevent destitution\nHelp older people gain the support to which they are entitled\nHelp women and children who have been trafficked for domestic servitude or prostitution.\n\n\nWhy should you take part?\nWe simply can’t overcome the effects of the huge reduction in government and local authority funding over the past few years.  What we can do is to ensure that many of the people most in need get help who would otherwise have been denied. \nBy taking part in the York Legal Walk and seeking sponsorship from your friends\, family and colleagues\, you will be helping to secure vital funds needed for this important cause. \nWhat will happen on the day?\n**Please note that the organisers will be following government guidelines continuously throughout the pandemic and arrangements are subject to change.** \n​We hope to welcome the York Legal Walk in person keeping all participants safe. \nWe are thankful to Citizens Advice York and the Yorkshire Law Society for helping to put this event together.\n​\nRegistration will be open between 5.00pm and 5.30pm and we ask that all participants report to register before having a photograph taken with our lead walkers. Once this has been done you are ready to set off on the 10km walk and we wish you the best of luck! \nWe will be running a photography challenge and encourage you to enter by tweeting your photographs from the event @YorkshireLST using the hashtag #legalwalk. \nThe post-walk celebration will begin upon your arrival at the end venue and we would like to invite you to join us for a complementary drink courtesy of Bar Revolution to celebrate your enormous success!
