The Local Government Legal Society Trust have a few remaining copies of John Emms book on the history of Solicitors in Local Government from 1947-2012. For a limited time only, if you would like to obtain a copy, only the cost of posting the book is required. If you were involved with any of the groups throughout that time which have now become LLG, you are very likely to find reference to yourself and indeed, the odd photo!

Talking Law in Local Government
LLG are looking to recruit two Membership Directors to join its productive Board of Directors and help shape and support the profession of lawyers and governance officers in local government. These are new roles designed to encourage members to engage at the top level of the organisation and to represent the membership’s interests. This great opportunity will place you at the cutting edge of local authority law and practice, offering great networking and partnership arrangements with our members, corporate partners and stakeholder organisations. Both positions are for a fixed term period of one-year until the next LLG AGM scheduled for October 2021. Those appointed will be encouraged to stand for re-appointment next year where candidates will be decided by membership election.
