DESCRIPTION:Please note that this course is designed for LSE Law/Law and Finance and students ONLY. \n\n\nREGISTER HERE \n\nCertificates will be provided to participants who attend 75% of the Sessions.  \nThe legal profession is being fundamentally reshaped by advances in artificial intelligence and automation. Lawyers\, in-house counsels\, regulators\, and legal technologists are experimenting with new models\, tools\, and business structures\, creating both opportunities and challenges for those entering the profession. \nThis series of seminars and panel discussions invites students and faculty to explore how the AI-driven transformation of legal services will affect how lawyers work\, which skills they need\, and what the workplace of the future might look like. \nForces reshaping the legal profession \n \n“David Morley\, former Managing and Senior Partner of legacy Allen & Overy (2008–2016) — now A&O Shearman — led the firm through a major phase of global expansion\, doubling revenues and extending its international footprint.

SUMMARY:Democracy and the Right to Protest in the UK
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, protests have been a key tactic for activists and movements to express discontent and push for change. \nToday\, however\, the democratic space for protests and collective mobilisation is rapidly shrinking. From more forceful and frequent crackdowns on protesting to introducing new legislation to restrict protest and prosecute individuals\, governments across the world\, including the UK\, are increasingly finding new ways to suppress protest and silence critical voices. \nThis panel will discuss why protests matter\, what the shrinking of democratic space means for social movements and activists\, and what can be done to protect freedom of speech and the right to protest. \nThe event will be followed by a reception with drinks and canapés. \nMeet our speakers and chair \nPascale Frazer-Carroll is an Atlantic Fellow for Social and Economic Equity and a campaigner and social impact director. Most recently she has held positions as the UK Director and Regional Director for the UK & Australia at the petition platform Change.org\, which is the largest website for social change in the world. In these roles\, she has led teams to support millions of people to use digital mobilising tools to increase their ability to speak out against injustices and run people-powered campaigns. \nRichard Martin is Assistant Professor of Law at the LSE Law School. He conducts socio-legal and doctrinal research at the intersection of criminal justice\, human rights and public law. Richard’s monograph\, Policing Human Rights (OUP\, 2021) was joint runner up of the Inner Temple Book Prize – New Author’s Prize\, and shortlisted for the Peter Birks Prize for Outstanding Legal Scholarship and the Hart-SLSA Book Prize for Early Career Academics. \nSam Nadel is a PhD candidate at the Department of Social Policy at LSE. He is also a Director of the Social Change Lab\, which focuses on studying the impact of protest movements on public opinion\, public discourse\, and policy. Sam has held a range of roles with human rights and international development organisations including Amnesty International UK and Oxfam Great Britain. \nGeorge Kunnath is Associate Professor (Education) and Lifelong Engagement Lead for the Atlantic Fellows for Social and Economic Equity (AFSEE) programme at the International Inequalities Institute (III). He is a core team member of the Politics of Inequality Research programme at III. His research examines the relationality of inequality\, conflict and peace-building in the Global South\, particularly focusing on the intersectionality of race\, caste\, class\, gender and ethnicity. \nThis event will operate on a first-come\, first-serve basis. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Leaking Justice: From oil spills in the Niger Delta to the High Court in London—A conversation with King Okpabi on the Shell Trial
DESCRIPTION:Book here to register for a space. \nFor nearly a decade\, the Ogale and Bille communities of Nigeria have been fighting for justice\, seeking accountability from oil giant Shell for the devastating environmental pollution that has wrecked their land and livelihoods. Now\, as the landmark trial began at the High Court in London—running from 13 February to 7 March 2025—the case could set a historic legal precedent: holding a UK multinational accountable for human rights violations due to environmental harms. \nJoin us for a conversation with King Okpabi\, leader of the Ogale community\, alongside an expert panel on environmental law and litigation. Together\, they will unpack the significance of this case\, its legal journey\, and its potential impact on future lawsuits against corporate actors. The panel will also discuss the patterns and path dependencies beyond fossil fuel extraction\, drawing connections to critical mineral extraction for the so-called ‘green’ energy transition. \nThis is a rare opportunity to hear firsthand from those at the forefront of the struggle for ecological justice. Don’t miss it! \nPanelists:  \n\nKing Okpabi\nZoe Johannes (Leigh Day)\nMark Dummett (Amnesty International)\nZainab Rahim (RAID)\n\nChair:  \n\nMarie Petersmann (LSE Law School)\n\nAbout the speakers: \n King Bebe Okpabi\, Oneh-Eh-Nchia X and Paramount Ruler of Ogale\, has been—since the case was filed a decade ago—the lead community claimant in Ogale’s ongoing legal battle against Shell following the environmental devastation they have caused. He represents his community which\, like many across the Niger Delta\, have been blighted by Shell’s operations and the damage this has caused since they arrived in Nigeria around 70 years ago\, during which time Shell have made billions of dollars in profits from Nigeria’s resources. \nZoe Johannes is an Associate Solicitor in the international department at Leigh Day\, representing over 13\,000 individuals in the Ogale and Bille communities who have suffered devastating oil pollution caused by Shell’s operations in the Niger Delta. She holds an MSc in Gender\, Media and Culture from LSE and has worked in domestic and international human rights litigation at Leigh Day since 2018. \nZainab Rahim is a Media & Communications Manager at RAID\, a corporate watchdog which holds companies to account for human rights and environmental harms. She completed an MA in Postcolonial Culture & Global Policy in 2021. Her dissertation was focused on the slow ecological violence and access to justice in the lead poisoning case in Kabwe\, Zambia. RAID is currently investigating toxic pollution around DRC’s industrial copper-cobalt mines. \nMark Dummett is the Head of the Business and Human Rights team at Amnesty International\, which campaigns on behalf of communities affected by human rights abuses linked to the oil industry in the Niger Delta. He has been researching the causes and consequences of oil pollution there for the past decade. He has written several reports on the issue\, including Negligence in the Niger Delta\, which used Shell’s own records to show how the company was failing to respond appropriately to oil spills\, and A Criminal Enterprise\, which examined the company’s support for the Nigerian military as it cracked down on protestors in the Ogoniland region in the 1990s\, resulting in the execution of writer and protest leader Ken Saro-Wiwa. Mark has also led human rights investigations in the Occupied Palestinian Territories\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo\, Myanmar\, Bangladesh and India. He is a former BBC News Correspondent. \nAbout the chair: \nMarie Petersmann is Assistant Professor at LSE Law School. Her research focuses on legal strategies for ecological and climate justice in the Anthropocene. She holds a PhD in International Law from the European University Institute and an LLM from the Graduate Institute in International and Development Studies. She is the author of When Environmental Protection and Human Rights Collide: The Politics of Conflict Management by Regional Courts (CUP 2022). \nBook here to register for a space. \nHosted by the: \n \n  \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:The Impossible Role of Non-executive Directors?
DESCRIPTION:Non-executive directors have been part of the corporate landscape since the 19th century.  In their modern incarnation they are often said to enhance board accountability. The claim and hope is that they supply the board with independent counsel as well as oversight of the executives and management. The exact impact of their contribution is\, however\, hard to measure and evaluate. One contributor refers to them as the corporate law equivalent of vitamin C:  they have a low level of prophylactic effect but cannot prevent corporate misconduct. A more pessimistic and perhaps cynical view would be to argue that non-executive directors are largely cosmetic in their impact. \nFollowing the collapse of Carillion\, the Secretary of State launched disqualification proceedings against Carillion’s non-executive directors. The claim was abandoned the day before a 13 week trial was due to start\, but there is nevertheless much to learn from that case. What does the law expect from individuals who work for the company on a part-time basis? What are they expected to know? To what extent are they entitled to rely on information provided to them by the executive directors? When are they in breach of duty and in what circumstances are they considered to be unfit to be concerned with the management of the company? \nAndrew Thompson KC\, Andrew Blake\, and Philip Morrison successfully defended the non-executive directors of Carillion. We are very fortunate to be able to welcome them as speakers for this event. \nSpeakers: \nAndrew Thompson KC took silk in 2014. He is a sought-after\, specialist commercial litigator\, with particular expertise in corporate litigation and arbitration (including shareholders’ disputes\, joint venture disputes and claims against directors)\, LLP and partnership disputes\, corporate insolvency\, commercial litigation (including large-scale contractual disputes\, fraud and breach of warranty claims)\, and professional negligence claims (including lawyers\, accountants\, valuers and management consultants). \nAndrew Blake was called to the bar 2012 and specialises in company law\, commercial litigation\, restructuring and corporate insolvency. His time is divided between litigation and advisory work. Much of his work involves large and contentious corporate transactions\, both domestically and overseas. \nPhilip Morrision was called to the bar in 2018. He specialises in company and insolvency law and undertakes instructions across the whole spectrum of corporate work. His practice involves corporate advisory and transactional work\, corporate litigation and shareholder disputes\, contentious and non-contentious insolvency and debt restructuring\, and broader commercial chancery disputes. He is ranked as a leading junior in insolvency by the Legal 500. \nChair: Eva Micheler \n\n\n	Related
