IHL conference 4 November 2025

We are already planning our next IHL conference which will take place on 4 November at Innside Hotel on First Street, Manchester.

We are delighted to reveal that our guest speaker this year is Lee Castleton – the sub postmaster who featured prominently in the ITV drama last year in which Lee was played by Will Mellor. Lee will be talking to us about his experiences with inhouse and external lawyers, how this shaped the events that unfolded at the time of the scandal, during the litigation and settlement in 2019 and how it’s been having a critically acclaimed actor play him on TV!

We will also have the usual informative and interactive topical updates from members of the Pannone Corporate team.

Watch this space for more details nearer the time.
