What to expect?

The four (4) week Vacation Scheme programme begins with a one-day induction, where we briefly introduce our firm and our Firm and our business to you. After induction, you will start your rotation and each rotation lasts for one (1) week under each of the four (4) main practice groups of the firm. During your rotation, you will work with our lawyers and assist with actual legal work, such as legal research, drafting and preparing documentation and bundles. You may also have the opportunity to attend court hearings, and participate in conference calls, and other adhoc tasks. Occasionally, you may also attend in-house and external trainings and seminars.

As part of our 'Young Talent Committee' initiative that ensures the welfare of our students is looked after, we will have associates from each Practice Group to play a buddy role while you are attached to their PG. You will meet your buddy on your first day of internship.

Finally, you are welcome to join in on all our social, community outreach and wellness events, which we host from time to time.

Will I receive an allowance for my internship?

Yes, a fixed allowance is given upon completion of your internship with us.
