Do you understand your professional duties towards vulnerable clients?  

Delivered by Fiona Donnelly, this interactive workshop will support you to improve your practical skills in interacting with vulnerable clients. This will help ensure that your client-facing practice is in line with your duties as a solicitor in relation to Safeguarding, Mental Health and Equality legislation.

You will actively work through scenario-based exercises, collaborate in peer discussions, and practise the skills of interacting with vulnerable clients under expert guidance. This bespoke three-hour session will assist delegates to recognise challenges experienced by vulnerable clients, understand how those challenges affect their ability to give instructions and receive advice, begin to identify different strategies and guidance to enable effective communication using practical examples.
