    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • We attended focus talks with different departments in the firm and gained a detailed understanding of the types of work the firm gets involved in and the firm's clients. We were also able to get involved in real tasks given to us by the departments we were sitting in. There was also a legal advice clinic workshop and a group task which kept us busy if there were any periods without work or other activities.
