    Winter Vacation Scheme 2018 Thread

    I know the feeling trust me! In terms of prep, just go through any recent commercial stories you have been following and think about how it affects law firms and clients. Also try and research the law firms sponsoring the competition’s practice areas and try and link the commercial stories...
