Commercial law is one of the most competitive fields for graduates to get into. There are only ~7,000 training contracts offered by City law firms each year, meaning just 1%-2% of training contract applications are successful.
Students therefore need to do all they can to get the competitive edge. Having great academics just isn’t enough. For a small minority, personal connections support their efforts to gain knowledge and experience. However, the majority need support and expert guidance to give them the best chance to succeed.
And this support and guidance isn't easy to access...
We democratise access to the legal profession, bringing together the expert advice and insider insights needed to empower you to put your best foot forward as an aspiring lawyer.
With a decade-long track record of success, our tried and tested teaching techniques have helped over 10,000 aspiring lawyers to navigate the application process, ace interviews, and get closer to their dream legal careers.
