Going to the Bar is a big decision and it’s hard to know the why, when and how of it all.

In this session, we have assembled a series of barristers who have gone to the Bar from through different pathways, at different times and to different chambers to discuss their experiences leading up to going to the Bar.

Kim Lendich SC (Francis Burt Chambers), Tom Lettenmaier (Murray Chambers), Samatha Nadilo (Fourth Floor Chambers) and Rodney Worth (John Toohey Chambers) will discuss why they decided to become a barrister, how they settled on when to go and how they set themselves up and chose a chambers.

The session will have closing remarks from President of the WA Bar Association, Brahma Dharmananda SC (Quayside Chambers)

Attendees will be eligible for one CPD point in CA1 (Practice Management).
