Join us

Over time we have developed envious relationships and partners with numerous influential organisations that enable us to create a range of services and benefits which are enjoyed by our Members.

We recognise that our Members have a range of needs, many outside of their professional world. We believe that by working to support both the professional and the more personal aspects of your life, it helps to give you the balance required to become a better, more rounded solicitor and therefore champion of the BSN Aims and Values.

As part of this process we are continuously developing and improving our overall benefits for our members.

Being part of BSN also means that you have an influential organisation on your side, representing your concerns to key stakeholders within the legal profession, the government and the wider community.  We are with you, providing professional business support.

Member Benefits

As well as representing issues that are important to you, at the highest level, we can help you get the most out of the legal profession, wherever you are in your career.  Whether it is through sharing knowledge, bringing the right people together or providing practical career development advice, we can help you take the next step.

Networking and Business Opportunities

We are renowned for providing opportunities to meet other like-minded professionals, share knowledge as well spearheading ideas and initiatives that have a positive, lasting impact.

Additionally, our activities increasingly open up access to businesses and professionals outside of the legal sector, providing potential new business and networking opportunities as well.

Career and Professional Development

Progress your career, with access to expert advice and information to help you stand out from the crowd. This includes our Jobs Board site along with ad hoc career-focused events that run throughout the year.

Special negotiated Member Benefits

It is not all about work – BSN is always looking to enhance the member offer and provide specially negotiated member benefits and deals via a range of affiliates and partners.

Members who sign up to receive newsletters will be made aware of these as and when they are available.

Companies looking to work with us should get in touch.
