This half-day online conference will be delivered by 8 speakers, including 5 clinical negligence QCs and will focus on a carefully selected range of important topical issues and problem areas in clinical negligence.
The conference is very definitely NOT a repeat of the highly successful and very popular previous Clinical Negligence conferences we have held over the last two years. It covers a selection of new and important subjects with a wide range of sessions, including: an update on the new cases on Vicarious liability and non-delegable duty in clinical negligence, the Expert/Lawyer relationship and delayed treatment claims in the context of COVID.
We have have refined the online conference concept into a highly effective training tool which is as far removed from the boring old one-hour/one speaker webinar as it is possible to be. Instead of one speaker, we have 8, who between them will deliver 8 x 25 minute sessions. By exposing our attendees to a wider variety of voices, they are in turn exposed to a wider range of ideas. Consequently, you can better get to grips with the subject, facilitate a greater understanding of the topic and keep your organisation abreast of fresh and important developments.
The conference will be streamed live, direct to your desktop, tablet or smart phone so you can watch it from your office or home anywhere in the world. You can participate in the conference live or watch the recorded version whenever or wherever you want. In each case you will receive a recording of the complete conference after the event.
The price for this is £225 + VAT. This is a per organisation price, so up to 19 of your colleagues can participate at absolutely no extra charge, even if they are viewing it from a different location or at a different time. So, of course, if there are 10 of you the cost per delegate would be just £22.50 per head.
For organisations with four or less partners, you can purchase a single place at the conference for £99 + VAT

Important Notes about Booking
1. If you are booking more than say 14 delegates, it is probably better to make two bookings of half the number of delegates each, starting with the paying delegate and then adding half the free delegates to that booking and then creating a new booking for the rest of the free delegates. The reason for this is that the booking platform time-out kicks in perhaps too quickly and you can lose all the information you inputted. Alternatively you can book your first delegate and send the names, job titles and email addresses of the additional delegates to us at info@legaltrainingconsultancy.co.uk
2. Payment can be made by credit or debit card or alternatively by invoice. The option to pay by invoice is below the pay by card option in the booking form
3. If you have more than 20 delegates then extra delegates are £20 each. Contact us at info@legaltrainingconsultancy.co.uk to arrange this
4. If you don't have the complete list of who will be attending you can book for those that you know will be attending and add the others at a later date
5. If you would like to submit questions in advance to the speakers please send them to info@legaltrainingconsultancy.co.uk
