Tuesday 3 June, 4pm to 6pm, taking place virtually
Join us on the afternoon of Tuesday 3 June for a virtual student event in partnership with The University of Law (ULaw), geared towards non-law students looking to enter the legal profession.
The event features solicitors from a range of practice areas at various leading law firms, alongside a ULaw tutor who was previously in practice themselves. To provide students with a broad insight into the legal industry, the speakers will delve into their respective practice areas, as well as sharing their views on what future changes we can expect in the legal market.
Time: 4pm to 6pm
Location: Virtual event
Level: Students, Graduates
As the legal profession continues to evolve, those who possess a combination of different skillsets have found themselves in high demand. The speakers, many of whom studied non-law subjects before joining the industry, will advise students on how to take advantage of their non-legal backgrounds to secure training contracts with leading firms.
After a Question Time-style panel discussion chaired by a Legal Cheek journalist, there will be virtual networking with the speakers, trainees from the firms and members of their early careers teams. This is also a great opportunity to follow up with ULaw’s tutor, student recruitment team and current non-law students, and to find out more about making the transition to law via ULaw’s Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL).
Apply to attend. You’ll be asked to submit two questions for the speakers.
