The Golden Gavel is on next Tuesday 11 August at Vinos Eagle Street Pier ... and once again I will be competing.
The Golden Gavel is an annual event held by the Queensland Young Lawyers in coordination with the Australian Young Lawyers Committee. The Golden Gavel is a public speaking competition for young lawyers. Each state holds a state final to determine which young lawyer can give the most interesting, and hopefully, amusing speech. Previous topics have included:
- Lawyers and Penis Envy: My Firm is Bigger than Your Firm;
- If Dr. Suess were a Justice of the High Court;
- Corporate Greed Is Good;
- The Best Six Minutes of My Life;
- Punch Drunk Love: The Legal Office Christmas Party.
