2025 overview
Legacy is not a conference. It is a retreat — a deliberately designed, invitation-only gathering for law firm leaders who are intent on shaping the future with clarity, courage, and purpose. Set against the iconic backdrop of the Goodwood Estate, Legacy offers an environment where bold thinking meets real-world leadership challenges in an atmosphere of trust, reflection and inspiration.
The 2025 retreat brought together CEOs, Managing Partners and select thought leaders for two days of meaningful exchange. The agenda blended world-class thinkers, intimate conversations and informal networking — all curated to provoke insight and challenge conventional thinking.

“It is a special couple of days that is very different to any other type of ‘gathering’ of other senior law firm leaders that I have been to. It was a real opportunity to take some time away from the office and create that headspace to properly listen to some really strong and creative (and different) speakers who each had a way of presenting that challenged the way I might have thought about something. The conversations that flowed from that between others who attended were then equally rewarding and engaging.”
Marie-Louise Hamilton, Managing Partner at Wrigleys


“Reflecting on the conference I’ve just attended at the most incredible Goodwood House and Hotel in Sussex. It was quite simply brilliant. I have had the privilege to hear from multiple brilliant speakers who have left me with plenty of ideas to return to the office with and who were fascinating to listen to.”
Pauline Wild, Managing Partner at Forbes

“Historically, my experience of lawyers was that they were very secretive about their own operations for fear of giving trade secrets away to competitors, but this was a refreshing experience of likeminded business owners and operators sharing similar challenges. I learnt lots, made numerous connections and have started this week feeling very invigorated. Definitely a career highlight!”
Helena Cameron, Director at Oliver & Co
