Outer Temple Chambers hosted a Travel Law Conference in Manchester on 17th March 2022 together with a selection of esteemed guests from the travel law industry. This was a hybrid event and the recordings are now available online. The first talk of the day was “Litigating RTAs Abroad After Brexit”, presented by travel law specialists Carin Hunt of Outer Temple Chambers and Colin Murphy of Leigh Day.
Carin and Colin looked at the background of Brexit and the pre-Brexit position before moving on to applicable law, jurisdiction and what has changed. They then looked at service and enforcement.
Finally, Carin and Colin discussed the post-Brexit position, the role of the MIB in cross border cases and practical considerations for travel lawyers.
