Promoting Integrated Legal Excellence Through Special Interest Groups
SIGs facilitate the identification of expert lawyers in a specific field and promote knowledge management between member firms. They share information and help to establish relationships that are friendly and informative. SIGs hold regular conference calls, and most enjoy an annual meeting hosted by one of the member firms.
Some SIGs have developed business plans to determine their common ambitions and communicate them to others. Action points within the business plans can be attributed to individuals within the group, so all members are encouraged to join.

Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting (AGM), which the AEL holds every autumn, stands as the highlight of our yearly seminars. Member firms alternate hosting the event, which features speakers who delve into pertinent topics and breakout groups that facilitate discussions for delegates to provide feedback.
While there's no overall charge for attendance, delegates must cover their own travel, accommodation, and dining expenses. Spouses are also welcome to join, and are provided with tailored itineraries to explore the local area.
