Somalis in Law is the first instalment of the Somalis in the City professional-development series, hosted by the LSESU Somali Society. This event brings together Somali lawyers and future trainees working at some of the UK’s leading City law firms to share their journeys, insights, and practical advice for aspiring legal professionals.
The evening will include: • A panel discussion featuring lawyers from firms including A&O Shearman, Barclays, and more (full line-up to be announced). • Guided moderation and audience Q&A exploring training contracts, City firm culture, navigating applications, and the lived experiences of Somali professionals in the legal sector. • Post-event networking and light refreshments, providing students with meaningful opportunities to connect with speakers and with one another.
This event is open to all students from all universities and all backgrounds — whether you are exploring commercial law for the first time or actively preparing for applications.
Join us for an inspiring evening as we highlight representation, share actionable insights, and create space for Somali excellence within the legal profession.
