The objects of the Committee are to:

  1. to promote and assist professional development for Young Lawyers;
  2. to facilitate discussion and conversations in relation to issues affecting Young Lawyers;
  3. to advance and promote the interests of Young Lawyers;
  4. to support Young Lawyers; and
  5. to assist the Society and its other committees by participation in Society's committees, undertaking research and surveys of its members and preparing reports for Council.

We are a subcommittee of the Law Society NT, and have a representative on the Society's Council. In addition, we have a representative on the Australian Young Lawyers Committee of the Law Council of Australia, which ensures young lawyers' issues are promoted at a national level.
