Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
This was a very varied scheme. We had to do a research task in each seat. There were many networking opportunities and practice area panels which educated us on the different services the firm offers.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Invaluable - gave practical insights into the role of a commercial lawyer at LW. It also taught me I could progress in the firm, what a role of a trainee is and all the support that is available in the firm.
