Blandy & Blandy Attends Global Conference in New York

Chairman and partner Nick Burrows, in the firm’s Corporate and Commercial team, and Katja Wigham, a partner in the Commercial Property team, attended the Law Firm Network’s annual global conference, hosted by American member firm Brown Rudnick, the event coinciding with Brown Rudnick’s 75^th anniversary.

Blandy & Blandy is the UK member of the Network, which brings together 50 independent law firms based worldwide, having joined in 2014 and hosted the European Conference in the Thames Valley in 2016.

The firm advises clients based internationally with interests in the UK, and is able to refer its own clients with overseas interests to like-minded firms around the world.

Areas of focus at the Conference included meetings of various practice groups, including M&A, Insolvency and Restructuring, Real Estate, IT and Emerging Technologies, Litigation and arbitration and Private Client. There were also several fascinating panel sessions hosted by Brown Rudnick partners covering matters as diverse as Impact Litigation, Brand and Reputation Management and Diversity, Pro Bono work and Diversity & Inclusion in Law Firms.
