Work experience
Get a real feel for life in a law firm
We offer legal work experience placements from our Head Office in Leeds all year round, giving students the chance to experience life in a full-service law firm working with both businesses and individuals.

What to expect during your placement
Our week long placements give you a real feel for life at a busy, modern law firm. Whether you’re just starting to explore a legal career or already working towards qualification, it’s a chance to grow your confidence, pick up practical skills, and learn directly from experienced professionals.
You’ll get stuck into real legal work from the start. That means helping with research, joining client meetings, and getting to grips with live cases. You’ll meet people across the firm, hear their stories, and learn about the different routes into law. You’ll also be welcome at any events happening during your week. Most importantly, you’ll be treated like one of the team from day one.
