Pupillage Vacancy Information
About Authorised Education and Training Organisation and Structure of Pupillage
Pupils will follow our bespoke 12-month training programme focusing on developing the skills, knowledge, and experience to deal with complex and challenging cases.
During the non-practicing period, in addition to supported theoretical study, Pupils will spend time observing and shadowing the work of both our in-house lawyers and external Counsel.
During the practicing period, Pupils are expected to be on their feet and may take their own cases with their Pupil Supervisor permission. Whilst Pupils will enjoy being challenged and developing their practice, they will undertake work that is suitably matched to their skills and experience at any given time.
Financial and Other Support Available
Reasonable travel expenses will be covered by the firm and Legal research resources will be provided by the firm.
Equality Diversity and Inclusion
The firm is deeply committed to broadening accessibility to the profession and is passionate about providing opportunities to those who may not fit. For this reason, when considering pupillage applications we do not place any weight on factors, such as the university and school attended (so long as the Bar Standard Board’s minimum mandatory requirements are met). We are a diverse team with staff members from a wide variety of backgrounds.
