First International Multidisciplinary Law Conference - Symbiosis Law School, Hyderabad

Symbiosis Law School, Hyderabad is organizing ‘COHERENCE’ forming a unified whole, the first International Multidisciplinary Law Conference. The objective of the Conference is to bring to the fore the obvious synergistic value that shall result from MDP in enriching Law domain and to create a platform for research in multiple academic disciplines with Law.

Multidisciplinary practices (MDP) have been a subject of acrimonious debate between two opposing campaigns, each citing passionate reasons for why it should be formally established or definitively barred. In the Law discipline, Multidisciplinary practice refers to a professional entity in which lawyers partner with non-lawyers to provide a mix of legal and non-legal services. Efficiency and innovation by this new structure is stifled with fears of conflicts of interest and dilution of privilege.
