Law Work Experience Placements
The competition for training contracts is fierce and unique international internships are a great way to stand out from the crowd.
Many international law firms are turning their attention to emerging markets, with particular focus on the BRIC economies (Brazil, Russia, India and China). The huge amounts of venture capital and private equity in particular being invested in countries like India, provides a setting for both exciting and insightful legal work. A first hand understanding of these markets will provide you with a great foundation for your future legal career.
International agencies have partnered with several law firms who work with both public and private companies in a range of sectors including telecom, pharmaceuticals, IT and biotech. They typically advise clients in a range of areas including:
• International joint ventures
• Mergers & acquisition
• Shareholders’ rights
• Copyright and intellectual property rights
A law placement will provide you with an experience that is international, differentiating and yet relevant.
