SUMMARY:How can law firms and law schools attract talent?
DESCRIPTION:Students are increasingly questioning the value of a legal ed
 ucation and a career in the law. While the financial rewards remain a re
 al incentive\, many students recognise that they now have new options in
  business and technology\, which may not require a legal education. Equa
 lly\, students are seeking roles which will make a demonstrable differen
 ce in terms of ESG/the SDGs\, and which offer a better work/life balance
  and commitment to diversity. Alongside issues around recruitment\, rete
 ntion of talent is an even greater problem for many firms. In these cont
 exts\, what do law schools/firms need to do to sell the value of a caree
 r in the law\, and is there a greater need to reframe the work of lawyer
 s\, to respond to these new attitudes? Finally\, what about the recruitm
 ent of legal academics\, where similar problems persist.
