Connect, Learn, and Grow Globally

One of the most important benefits ABAL membership offers is the ability to meet in person with other members. Conference participation builds relationships and fosters deeper understanding of each other’s practices, firms, and the issues facing us. It also engenders trust that enables members to refer business to each other with confidence.

In addition to conferences, founder Aina Khan regularly meets members one-to-one or in the host cities. We hold Webinars and fireside chats, monthly video meetings and have an active Whatsapp group.

ANNOUNCING the ABAL Referral & Collaboration Masterclass

Tuesday 1st December 2026, 12 to 4pm National Liberal Club, London

April 2027, Sicily conference, Italy (date to be announced)

Join lawyers from across the globe for an interactive ABAL Referral Masterclass—a unique forum designed to understand each other’s practices and generate high-quality cross-border referrals.

Each participating lawyer will present a concise profile of their practice, including:

Their jurisdiction and legal system
Areas of expertise and niche specialisms
Their ideal client profile
Typical cross-border matters they handle
Current opportunities for collaboration and referrals

This is more than a networking event. It is a practical Masterclass in understanding the strengths of fellow ABAL members so that, when a client or colleague needs trusted legal advice in another jurisdiction, you know exactly who to recommend.

The session will conclude with an exclusive demonstration of the new ABAL AI Case Referral Portal—an innovative business-to-consumer (B2C) platform that enables clients worldwide to identify and instruct the most suitable ABAL lawyer directly, while also supporting seamless referrals and collaboration between member firms.
