Students interested in a legal career focussed on the infrastructure sector will be able to get advice on how the industry works and learn about a typical working day for a lawyer at an event in Bristol next week.
The Bristol head office of national law firm Burges Salmon has teamed up with Legal Cheek, the news source for law students and junior lawyers, to stage the panel discussion next Thursday. 
The event, at Burges Salmon’s Temple Quarter office, is invitation-only and those wanting to attend must apply by submitting their CV and two infrastructure-related questions.
Burges Salmon projects team partner Keith Beattie will lead the discussion and answer questions from the students. Joining him on the panel will be lawyers from the firm’s various legal specialisms and with different levels of seniority.
The discussion will be followed by drinks and networking with the speakers and a collection of the firm’s trainees and graduate recruitment team.
Keith said: “This event is a fantastic opportunity for students to find out more about how lawyers are involved at the heart of infrastructure projects and to learn about the breadth of the upcoming opportunities, both in the UK and overseas, across a wide range of sectors including energy, transport and social infrastructure.”
Legal Cheek publisher Alex Aldridge said: “Infrastructure is one of the hot practice areas that Legal Cheek’s community of future lawyers are set to play a big part in shaping over the years ahead.
“So it’s great to bring together these law students with Burges Salmon’s projects law experts. I’m looking forward to a fascinating discussion.”
