In Conversation

Hear some of Victoria’s most interesting public legal figures discuss hot-button issues in our annual Conversations.

What are the Conversations?

Every year until 2019 we invited a leading legal mind to discuss critical issues facing our justice system for the VLF Law Oration.

In 2022, we revised this model, and it became a conversation - exploring current matters, but also getting the speaker’s perspectives and experience in the law

The Conversations offer Victorians an insight into the critical issues and the people who lead our justice system. You can subscribe to our newsletter to hear about for future public events and booking details.
