On Tuesday evening 120 students gathered at Gray’s Inn to ask anything they wanted to a panel of top lawyers from 5RB, Hardwicke, Mayer Brown, Hogan Lovells, Norton Rose Fulbright, the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives and City University Law School.

Afterwards the students and panellists chatted together informally as they enjoyed drinks and nibbles kindly provided by Gray’s Inn.

One lucky student won an iPad Mini, courtesy of the ‘Future of Law Fortune Cookie’ giveaway by event sponsor LexisNexis. He was presented with his prize by barrister and City University lecturer Andrew Worthley (pictured below).
