About This Session
As Family Lawyers Rayden Solicitors work with clients who sometimes face significant change in their lives. We know how challenging life can sometimes be – emotional highs and lows, and changes that can sometimes have a profound effect or impact on a person’s life, and so we’ve brought together a group of experts who will discuss some of those types of challenges and guide you on how to find empowerment and independence – in relationships, in the workplace, in your finances and in daily life.
We are therefore delighted to be hosting our seminar - Finding Empowerment & Independence - so that we can introduce some of these contacts to a wider audience. We will be joined by employment lawyer Lucy Bloom; immigration lawyer Rimmy Bedi Whaley, financial advisor Frankie Smith as well as Rayden Solicitors' Legal Director Jennifer Moore and Partner Anna-Laura Lock.
We are charging a nominal fee for attendance with all profits going to charity, specifically the Maggie's Centre at The Royal Free hospital. Ticket price will include a complimentary drink and light refreshments.
