The NSW Law society has Young Lawyers Society which is for lawyers with less than 5 years experience or less than a certain age. The Young Lawyers Society also has Business Committee which introduced a Tax Sub-Committee. According to the website:
“The Tax Sub-committee discusses recent tax developments, reviews proposed amendments to tax law and will make submissions where appropriate and organises social and networking events.
Joining the Tax Subcommittee is an excellent opportunity to keep up to date and meet other lawyers who are share an interest in tax law and work in the area. The Tax Law Subcommittee has members from a diverse range of professional backgrounds – law firms, accounting firms, corporate and the ATO.
The Tax Law Subcommittee meets on the last Wednesday of every month at 6.30pm at the NSW Law Society Building at 170 Phillip St. If you are interested in being a part of the Tax Law Sub-committee, please email the Subcommittee Chair, Gulfam Ahmed.”
It looks like a good opportunity for lawyers practising in the area of tax law to meet other industry members and to discuss new and emerging tax issues.
Cheers,
Taxabull team.
