Closer ties with Russian lawyers – new initiatives

Two initiatives this winter will significantly enhance professional relations between lawyers qualified in England and Wales and those qualified as advocates in the Russian Federation: the new Qualified Lawyers Transfer Scheme (QLTS) and the Young Lawyers Exchange Scheme which will be launched in February 2012. Both are supported by the British Russian Law Association (BRLA) which last night held a joint seminar with the Law Society on the new QLTS.
