With an increasing number of families living global lifestyles, whether through personal choice or work, it has never been more important as a family law specialist to promote cross-border legal collaboration.
The inaugural Bilateral and Multilateral Law Association Week is in full swing, with events taking place in London and virtually to highlight the importance of promoting the rule of law and access to justice not just domestically, but around the world.
There are an estimated 40 bilateral and multilateral law associations based in the UK. On (a very wet) Wednesday evening, I attended a special reception hosted at The Law Society of England & Wales, and led by its President, Mark Evans, to represent the Finnish British Law Association.
The evening saw legal professionals from all over the globe unite to champion diversity, inclusion and cultural awareness in the profession. For me, it was a truly valuable opportunity to raise awareness about the UK’s thriving Anglo-Finnish legal community, and to meet so many other inspiring and talented legal professionals proudly doing the same for their own organisations (Japan, Colombia, Ukraine, Poland, France, Nigeria, Algeria, Indonesia, Malaysia, to name but a few).
