Bringing together the knowledge, expertise and connections of practice managers across the UK, the LPMA strives to build a compelling membership with a wide variety of benefits. Our membership meets in person once a year for our AGM and once quarterly for our Forum. In addition, we run a handful of virtual meetings across the year, discussing specific topics of interest to our membership. These events are only open to members.

CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES
If a member ceases to meet the criteria for membership (for example, by an individual leaving relevant employment or a company ceasing to trade in a relevant sector), membership of the LPMA will cease forthwith; there will be no refund of subscription made.
“As someone new to the world of the Bar, I have found the LPMA invaluable. It has introduced me to a community of professionals who can provide support and insight on the unique issues involved in running a Chambers.“
Alison Crosland
Chief Operating Officer, Keating Chambers
“Having joined both the profession and industry in April 2022, I have leaned on the LPMA for advice and guidance across a range of subjects – and the members have been just brilliant in readily sharing their thoughts. I look forward to being able to reciprocate the welcome I received by supporting future new members where I can.”
