Join us on the afternoon of Wednesday 5 November for a virtual student event with Harbottle & Lewis.
Harbottle & Lewis is renowned for its work with some of the biggest names in entertainment, sport and business, from globally recognised brands and companies to A-list celebrities, chart-topping musicians, and world-class athletes to visionary entrepreneurs. Its lawyers handle a wide range of legal and commercial matters, often where fame, business and reputation meet.
At this student event, a panel of the firm’s leading lawyers — specialising in areas such as corporate and intellectual property — will guide you through a case study inspired by a real-life client: a footballing icon. You’ll discover how the firm helps high-profile sports figures build their personal brands through commercial deals, manage their wealth, and protect their image rights from exploitation.
The speakers
• Lizzie Williams, partner in commercial litigation
• Sam Purkiss, managing associate in media & entertainment
• Emily Miles, managing associate in corporate
• Marissa Beatty, senior associate in IP litigation
The panel will also share insights from their own career journeys and offer practical advice for aspiring lawyers who are keen to follow in their footsteps.
After short talks, a presentation and a Q&A, there will be virtual networking with the speakers, Harbottle trainees and members of the firm’s graduate recruitment team.
Apply to attend above. You'll be asked to submit two questions to the panel.
