MERSEYSIDE

MEDICO-LEGAL SOCIETY

"Once you stop learning, you start dying"

Albert Einstein 

 

OUR SOCIETY

The Merseyside Medico-Legal Society was founded in the early 1960s by a group of lawyers and doctors to promote the better understanding of both law and medicine.

We host free lectures from prominent speakers in a range of disciplines on any topic of interest to our members (not always medical or legal). The meetings take place, on average, 4 times per year at the Liverpool Medical Institution at 114 Mount Pleasant, Liverpool.

For members we also provide optional drinks and dinner before each lecture where you will get a chance to socialise with our speaker and guests. Further details of our events are set out below, please be sure to book in advance.

All medics, lawyers and students of either profession are welcome to join the society. The medical membership has included forensic pathologists, dentists, police doctors, GPs and allied professions. The legal members include solicitors, barristers, judges, coroners, JPs and academics.

MMLS is a vibrant society and we also host an Annual Dinner as well as a garden party in recent years. New members are always warmly welcomed and feel free to get in touch if you have any queries.
