So much more than talking about jobs

Inside Mishcon de Reya — a free law insight evening Tuesday 29 September · Virtual.

Most students hear about law firms. Very few get ninety minutes with one.

We're taking Year 12 and Year 13 students inside Mishcon de Reya — a global law firm with offices across the UK, Europe, Asia and the US, known for work that ends up in the news: disputes, private client, real estate, corporate and innovation.

Their clients are international, and so are the matters you'd work on. Your base, though, would be London.

Their people will explain who they are, what they actually do, and how you get in — including the route plenty of students don't realise exists: a Solicitor Apprenticeship, qualifying as a solicitor while you work and earn, no university degree required.

What happens on the night

01

Meet the firm. Who Mishcon de Reya are, the international work they take on, and how a global law firm is actually structured.

02

Law workshops. Interactive, hands-on sessions that put you in the position of a trainee — the thinking and the skills the job really needs.

03

A partner keynote. Straight from someone at the top of the firm — how they got there and what they'd do differently.

04

Panel with their people. Apprentices, trainees and lawyers answering your questions live — ask them anything.

05

What's next. A first look at the in-person events we're running with Mishcon de Reya this year — attend this one and you'll hear about those first.

This is for you if You're in Year 12 or 13  ·  you're considering law  ·  you're weighing up an apprenticeship against university  ·  or you just want to see what a global commercial law firm is really like before you commit.

Places are limited — sign up now.
