3PB becomes a 2024 Bronze Patron of Advocate

19th July 2024

3PB Barristers has become a Bronze Patron of Advocate as a result of successfully raising over £2,500 for the charity at its recent Private Law and Financial Remedies Family Law Conference.

The family group made the donation, along with a separate donation for the same amount to Bfriends (the official charity of Birmingham Children’s Trust), drawing on the conference proceeds generated from ticket sales and sponsorship.

Advocate matches people in need of legal advice with barristers willing to take on cases on a pro bono basis. Bfriends is the official charity of Birmingham Children’s Trust and creates life opportunities for children in care.

Advocate’s Midlands Caseworker, Charlotte Green said: “We’re delighted that 3PB selected us as one of their charity partners for this event. This generous donation will be well spent supporting our mission to find free legal advice for people who are unable to obtain legal aid and cannot afford to pay. We could only provide the service that we do to people in need of access to justice with the support of committed barristers such as those at 3PB.”

Head of 3PB’s family law group Vanessa Meachin KCVanessa Meachin KCCall: 1990Silk: 2018 said: “We hope that the donations can assist both charities in continuing their vital work. We are very grateful to our headline sponsor H-J Wealth Planning Ltd, for all their support. We would also like to thank all the other sponsors and exhibitors for supporting our event including DNA Legal, OurFamilyWizard, Lexis Nexis and Today's Family Lawyer without whom the conference – and these donations – would simply not have been possible.”
