Our aim of the Legal Intern Programme is to offer individuals a pathway to gain experience in the Legal industry and apply for a Training Contract with the Firm. We have historically encountered many individuals at Undergraduate and Postgraduate level who are seeking real-world industry experience. Our Legal Intern Programme is designed to give this experience, it is an evolution of the traditional ‘Vacation Scheme’. The Programme empowers individuals from universities in the skills needed to be successful in a Training Contract.
We have three Legal Intern programmes available for you to apply to in 2026.
- Monday 5th April - Friday 16th April (2 weeks)
- Monday 5th July - Friday 23rd July (3 weeks)
- Monday 2nd August - Friday 20th August (3 weeks)
Programme Structure
To replicate the environment that individuals can expect as a Solicitor, we offer both two-week and three-week Programmes of full-time on-site employment at our Farnborough Head Office. Involving learning and development opportunities and exposure to real world legal work.
-
Practice Area Exposure
Interns will experience 2 -3 differing practice areas across our Corporate, Property and Private Client teams. This variety gives Interns a good insight into the differing skills required for each practice area to inform their own career pathway.
-
Mock Drafting Exercises
They are assigned department specific exercises to test legal knowledge and skills. These exercises are designed to give them the exposure to the type of work they might expect to complete, should they choose to work within that practice area in the future.
-
Legal Work
Some of the work Interns will undertake during the programme, includes conducting research, observing and note-taking during meetings, drafting articles and handling initial client enquiries. If they demonstrate their aptitude for legal tasks, they may have the opportunity to create 1st drafts of client advice or organise court bundles.
-
Programme Support
All Interns will have dedicated Supervisors from amongst our Solicitor ranks to guide their work. Additionally, our pool of Trainee Solicitors will be assigned to Interns for friendly support and guidance. Our Training team will be a primary point of contact throughout the programme for questions and advice.
-
Programme Events
There will be several opportunities to attend our internal ‘Ask the Experts’ training sessions with subject matter experts from across our Fee Earning and Operations teams. There will also be opportunities for socialisation with our Trainee Solicitors, to help Interns to see the culture and environment of the Firm.
