Pupillage Vacancy Information
About Authorised Education and Training Organisation Structure of Pupillage
Madison Legal is a specialist commercial and offshore disputes practice based in London, with a distinctive cross-border focus on work arising out of Gibraltar. The firm’s advocates are regularly instructed in complex commercial, financial services, insurance and insolvency matters with an international dimension, and Madison Legal has developed a strong reputation for its expertise in Gibraltar law and regulation.
Our work combines the analytical precision of the Bar with the strategic approach of commercial litigation, serving clients across multiple jurisdictions.
Pupillage at our firm provides a comprehensive foundation in commercial practice. Pupils gain experience in both contentious and non-contentious work. The first six months focus on developing core written and advisory skills through close supervision, drafting pleadings, opinions, and research. The second six months provide opportunities for advocacy and independent work, with pupils encouraged to begin building their own practice.
