Student Review

Speakers and organisers were very helpful and informative. there were some great sessions delivered which helped to give students a greater insight into how a law firm operates and the different routes which are able to be taken to qualify as a solicitor in both england and Northern Ireland. a great experience all round.

as students we were given seminars on commercial law, contract law, copyrighting and patents. we were also taught more about the type of firm that pinsent masons is and the types of values and qualities that they promote and admire. There was also a great session o CV, and interview tips

I would highly recommend this work experience as it was really enjoyable due to the welcoming and insightful speakers, trainees and organisers. the four days flew by and i will definately be looking out to apply for more work experiece and vaccatio n schemes which are provided by the firm

the work experience was very well organised and we were provided very engaging seminars and tasks which made the legal world seem like a highly rewarding sector to work in. apart from a few slip ups with links to the meetings it was great!

the company culture overall seemed very supportive and encouraging, the atmosphere which was created by the organisers was hugely welcoming and made everyone feel at ease and willing to take part in all of the actiities which were provided. I could definately see myself fitting in at the pinsent Masons firm.

the work experience did give me an insight into the role that i might be taking up in the legal industry. there was a lot of guidance about how to go abot getting into the legal industry. the mentors and managers were aso great and the employees were very supportive.
