Leading set 4PB launched the essay competition in memory of a much-loved friend and colleague, Alan Inglis, who passed away in August 2023
He was unique; the only family barrister and advocate qualified to practise in England and Wales and Scotland. He was also known as a fearless defender of LGBTQ+ rights.
In honour of Alan’s contributions to the LGBTQ+ community, the essay questions focus on legal issues that impact the LGBTQ+ community.
The title for the inaugural competition is:
‘Should the law allow children to have more than two legal parents?”
The competition is open to all law students (either at university, on a conversion course or at bar school) and the winner will receive £500 and a mini pupillage at 4PB, with the runner up receiving £250. More details of the competition can be found here.
The winner of the competition will be announced at a reception at 4PB in June, to coincide with Pride Month.
