Becoming an In-house Lawyer - Navigating your path to corporate success
This course has been specially designed for new in-house lawyers or those thinking about changing career from private practice to ensure you're prepared and ready to succeed in the role.
All lawyers understand that being an in-house lawyer is different to private practice, but how is it different?
Do you have a good understanding of what is it like to deliver legal services within a business environment in which your client is also your employer? Are you fully equipped for the challenge?
As an in-house lawyer you’re a crucial part of a business team. You’ll need to interact with company executives, management and fellow employees.

You’ll also need to understand and demonstrate your value in a situation where you can no longer rely on billings and chargeable hours. Handling the career differences can lead to greater job satisfaction and a better work-life balance, while making a real difference to an organisations goals.
This comprehensive half day course has been designed especially to prepare those thinking about making the move to in-house legal work, aswell as those who have recently made the change.
