Being a Trainee Solicitor: How to survive and thrive

$28.00

Being a Trainee Solicitor: How to survive and thrive is the essential self-help book if you are embarking on, or thinking about, a career as a solicitor. 

Before you receive your all-important practising certificate, you will face two years of training. Supervised by a senior, often working long hours and moving from department to department, it can be a daunting and sometimes demoralising time with your work under continual scrutiny. The learning curve is steep. Yet it is also a chance to for you to make your mark, start building a lifelong network of friends and peers, and showcase your skills to a potential post-qualification employer.

Being A Trainee Solicitor gives you the tools to navigate pitfalls and challenges with confidence while making the most of the many opportunities such training offers. You will gain a firm understanding of the world of junior law far in advance of stepping into an office, preparing you for how professional practice works.

About the author

Tom Proverbs-Garbett is a solicitor and management consultant who has spent many years working with trainees and, of course, was once a trainee too. Using a combination of practical insider advice and illustrative case studies, he tackles the expectations of the role, outlines the core skills you will need to learn, highlighting  out what to avoid and what to embrace.

Tom’s uniquely human and readable approach makes him a sympathetic tutor who provides real insight into the trainee experience. Being a Trainee Solicitor provides the priceless reassurance of ‘an extended chat over coffee’ with every reader, helping them to thrive, not just survive, at this staging point of their burgeoning career.
