What is Minsk Legal Forum?

The theme of the 2016 Forum is 'From Fiery Eyes to Dead Volcanoes, or the Entire Professional Life of a Lawyer in a Day'. More than 200 legal professionals from Europe and Asia will discuss major stages in their careers: from the first win and lose till retirement.

Here is some information regarding the agenda:

The participants shall discuss the 'Rising Stars' of the law market. In particular, Maxim Kulkov, Managing Partner of Kulkov, Kolotilov & Partners Legal Boutique, will confide to us the joys and sorrows of 'rein-free' life after leaving a large and respected legal firm.

Then it shall be time to deliberate on the 'hottest' topics of concern for our colleagues from various countries at the 'High Sun' section. What makes the life of successful lawyers? What errors do they make, and how do they cope with them? What do they dream of? And, finally, what occupational diseases threaten those who strive for success in the law business?

'Parallel Reality' is yet another unconventional session during which the participants will discuss new trends in the law business. Holger Zscheyge, General Director of Infotropic Media will share his vision of the Legal Tech impact on the legal profession worldwide.

In the Forum's final session 'Pack it Up and Go' the participants shall hear amusing stories of people who have left jurisprudence and become successful in other spheres. For example, Andrey Yermolinsky, who, having left the Public Prosecutor's Office, entertained kids in a children's café and later became one of the best-known showmen in Minsk
