Counsel magazine is seeking expressions of interest from barristers interested in shaping the future of the magazine through its editorial board.

The editorial board's role is to drive the direction of the editorial content of the magazine and to advise the publisher, LexisNexis, or any future partner, on matters affecting its production.
