    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.

    • Given an overview of DLA from various practice groups, with options for questions following every session. Also engaged in a mock litigation workshop and an evening social event which allowed me to network with other attendees. The second day involved more discussions focusing on the firm’s DEI work, personal branding and also the option to network with current trainees.
