The confidentiality of exchanges between a client and their lawyer is a key element in establishing a relationship of trust that enables the client to communicate their circumstances in order to advised, represented and defended. Clients can only receive appropriate legal advice if they can communicate openly and in confidence. 

This seminar seeks to draw from barrister, solicitor and in-house counsel experiences, and offer a forum to practitioners across the professions to consider the issues.

Additional Information

The Bar of Ireland's Beyond the Bar Alumni Network offers an opportunity for former members of The Bar of Ireland to stay connected with The Bar by

  • Retaining a link with members and colleagues who are still engaged with the area of work that you are involved in.
  • Building a community of fellow alumni across a range of sectors leading to exciting collaborations and partnerships.
  • Strengthening the culture and values of The Bar of Ireland, recognising that integrity, professionalism and collegiality extend to our former colleagues.

The nature of the working world today – the legal sector and the profession – means that opportunities arise outside the Law Library. These opportunities are realised in large part due to the value and the advantage of experience gained at The Bar of Ireland. Whether you are exploring new opportunities, whether your change of practice is temporary or permanent, you can still make a contribution to your colleagues in practice.
