Russell McVeagh report an opportunity to move forward - Bethany Paterson

The deans of the country's law schools plan to meet Russell McVeagh staff next month to discuss the response to the scathing external review into the firm's culture. The review, led by Dame Margaret Bazley, found the firm had a culture of excessive drinking when sexual misconduct allegations arose in 2015 and 2016 - and the incidents were managed poorly, with serious consequences for the people involved. Bethany Paterson is the Welfare Vice President for the Victoria University Students Association.
