Pupillage Vacancy Information
About Authorised Education and Training Organisation and Structure of Pupillage
Hayleys Solicitors is a long-standing business, dealing with a variety of matters in the Midlands with an office in Birmingham. We have an excellent reputation in the area and have lots of local connections along with offering services nationwide. We are looking to offer Pupillage to enhance our offering in the market, with a view to retaining the Pupils once they have qualified.
We are committed to providing a nurturing supportive environment, that encourages the Pupil to attain their goals.
We offer legal services in:
- Family
- Crime
- Personal Injury
- Immigration
We expect the Pupil to be able to move between the Family, Criminal, and Immigration departments, so they are exposed to a variety of work. Pupils are each allocated a dedicated pupil supervisor.
Both pupillages are 12 months in duration, divided into a non-practicing period (6months) and a practicing period (6 months).
Financial and Other Support Available
The Pupil in the first six will be provided with a minimum award set by the Bar Standards Board of £21,060.
During the second six the Pupil will have an income as they will be conducting cases, and therefore will not be paid by the company. However, if they do not earn the minimum award as set by the Bar Standards Board, the company will make up the difference.
- Where the Pupil earns more than the minimum award during the second six, they will be able to retain their earnings, but will not be paid the minimum award.
- All payments, including monies earned by the Pupil in their second six, and expenses that have been incurred, will be made by bank transfer directly into the Pupil’s account at the end of each calendar month.
