Visitors to Shropshire Business Festival will be able to raise legal queries with an expert as lawyers from an award-winning law firm attend the event this year.

Shropshire Business Festival takes place at Wrekin College in Wellington on April 11, and Lanyon Bowdler Solicitors will be there to give advice and deliver a seminar on clinical negligence claims.

The free-to-attend business festival is organised by Shropshire Festivals with hundreds of business leaders expected to attend, and follows on from a hugely successful event last year.

Amanda Jones, marketing director at Lanyon Bowdler, said the firm would be hosting a special ‘Lawyers Lounge’ at the event.

She said: “The festival is a big date on the calendar and we are delighted to be supporting it again this year.

“In the Lawyers Lounge we will have Edward Rees, Abi Croft and Liam Holyhead, the three of them will be there to chat with those starting a business, or business owners, about managing debts by having a strong credit control process in place and ensuring the right legal documents are in place, such as partnership agreements and business lasting powers of attorney.

“Visitors are able to just pop along and see one of the team on the day, or they can book appointments ahead of the event.

“The festival runs from noon until 7pm and there will be so much going on throughout the day. Subject areas include tourism and hospitality in Shropshire, business start-up, general business and networking.

“The Lanyon Bowdler team always enjoys the chance to meet people in an informal setting and if anyone would like to book an appointment in advance, they can get in touch by emailing us at info@lblaw.co.uk.”

One of the seminars on the day will include a talk on medical negligence by a member of the Lanyon Bowdler team, and new at the festival this year will be the opportunity to enjoy business talks from Silent Seminars, who are sponsoring the concept at the event.

Visitors will be given headphones to tune in to a live business talk whilst on the move, maximising their time at the event.
