Are you a recent law graduate looking to complete your Practical Legal Training (PLT) and take the next step toward admission as a lawyer? Our PLT placement offers a supportive, real-world environment where you’ll gain critical hands-on experience, build your professional network, and receive mentorship from experienced legal practitioners.
As part of your PLT placement, you’ll be involved in diverse legal work, including:
Drafting legal documents, correspondence, and court forms
Conducting legal research and preparing case summaries
Attending client interviews, court hearings, and mediations
Assisting with case preparation and litigation support
File and matter management using practice management software
Participating in internal meetings and team briefings
You will work under the direct supervision of qualified lawyers and gain exposure across various practice areas including family law, criminal law, civil litigation, property, migration law, IP, construction law and wills & estates (depending on the firm structure).
Many of our former PLT candidates have successfully transitioned into full-time solicitor roles soon after completing their placement. This program is structured to prepare you for practice and help you stand out in a competitive legal job market. You are not required to perform administrative work.
