Aberdeen Reparation Conference 2018

Compass Chambers is delighted to invite you to attend our Aberdeen Reparation Conference. This year we will be holding 2 conferences in Aberdeen. This one will focus on Reparation and the next Conference will focus on Regulatory Crime. We hope this new format will appeal more to solicitors specialising in these areas.

The Conference will take place on Friday 23rd March 2018 at The Society of Advocates in Aberdeen from 1pm until 5pm.  Under the Law Society of Scotland's Guidelines, delegates may claim 3 hours of CPD time.  The conference is open to all solicitors, in-house lawyers, trainees and paralegals.

The Conference is FREE to attend, however we would ask delegates to make a minimum donation of £10 to our nominated charity for 2018, Social Bite. Donations can be made on the day or by visiting our Virgin Money Giving Page

The Aberdeen Conference aims to provide delegates with up-to-date information regarding the important issues in our core area of Reparation along with the opportunity to discuss some of the most significant and current developments.  Members of Compass Chambers who specialise in these areas will lead the presentations.

The Programme will commence at 1:00pm with registration and run through until 5:00pm. A drinks reception will follow to which all conference attendees are invited.
