Property Legal partner Adam Pavey has aided in the twinning of
the Manchester Law Society and the Italian Padua Law Society, with
hopes that the two societies will be able to encourage international
links.
Manchester and Padua have many similarities, with both cities being cultural and
economic centres, and the new twinning agreement has been designed to help young
lawyers to train in Manchester and Padua. The agreement will also highlight the many solicitors in Manchester and will allow
it to gain more attention.
Adam Pavey, who orchestrated the agreement, said: “We want to create links with
business and give Manchester a higher profile in Europe, rather than London taking
all the limelight.”
Mr Pavey, an international officer for the Manchester Law Society, explained that
though the two cities have very different legal systems, there are high hopes for
the agreement.
It is to include an exchange programme between Manchester University and Padua
University to help law students and recently qualified lawyers to gain valuable
experience. According to the Manchester Law Society, many Italian lawyers have
already said they hope to begin work at Manchester firms, with a focus being put on
corporate lawyers hoping to deal with international issues.
John Dunn, president of the Manchester Law Society, said: “In these difficult
economic times it is all the more important to build ties between countries. We need
a strong Europe to help the economic framework that allows people to live in peace
and prosper.
The president of the Padua Law Society, Lorenzo Locatelli, said: “I am sure that our
work and cooperation can be successful, especially for young lawyers. My hope is
that young Italian and English lawyers in our beautiful profession can work
together.”
