This was an open discussion involving the judiciary, the bar and clerks on the range of wellbeing issues affecting the modern commercial bar and possible responses. The panel consisted of:
Mrs Justice Cockerill DBE (Judge of the Commercial Court)
David Joseph KC (Chair of COMBAR, Essex Court Chambers)
Oliver Caplin (barrister, Twenty Essex; advisory board member, Wellness for Law)
Lucy Burrows (Deputy Senior practice manager, 3VB; committee member, Wellbeing at the Bar)
The event was intended to be the beginning of a conversation about wellbeing over a number of COMBAR events. Discussion with the audience was welcomed by the panel and as such the talk was not recorded. Oliver Caplin’s presentation is available here.
