Domestic abuse affects 1 in 5 adults in their lifetime – a sobering statistic that highlights the need for change. At Legal Geek, we’re committed to driving a positive change within the legal profession and beyond.
Attendees will have the chance to hear Mel B’s story first-hand and connect with her one-on-one in a meet and greet. She is just one of the hundreds of incredible speakers we’ve lined up for this year’s event. Get your ticket now.

“Tiger attack or emails on the weekend? The science of the stress response”
Being a lawyer is stressful. We all know that. But our body’s stress response has been designed for a very different world, and a very different kind of stressor to those we now face as modern day lawyers (and humans). There’s only one way to address this – to understand our stress response cycle and to make sure we complete it. Natalie will show us how…
