Legal Placement Remote
Job description
Our industrial legal placement for second year LLB students offers the opportunity to spend an academic year working with a solicitors firm, gaining practical experience in Corporate, Property and Finance Transactions. Students will benefit from departmental legal training and will expect to receive a diverse range of legal tasks with a high level of responsibility in each department. The Placement Student(s) will spend their third year on placement with us commencing in July/August each year, as part of a four-year qualifying law degree. The internship will afford students the opportunity to embed in one area of the business and develop high quality legal skills and knowledge. Each student will also benefit from the firm’s induction programme and department specific training sessions, the supervision of a UK qualified Solicitor, and a trainee ‘buddy’ scheme. Students will be required to complete a reflective learning log whilst on the placement, which will outline work they have undertaken and skills gained.
Application and Eligibility
The programme is open to LLB and ‘Senior Status’ LLB students upon completion of their second year of the UK LLB programme. Students must achieve an average of 2.1 across both their first and second year results to be considered and will be required, if selected, to transfer to the LLB Law in Practice. Mitigating circumstances regarding academic results will be taken into account during application and assessment.
This is an expenses only opportunity. You will be paid to visit the offices or if travel is needed to visit clients.
