[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 77634, member: 2672"] In many ways it won’t be any different to a law student. The expectations of technical legal knowledge will be slightly different but considering law students are often taken on before they have done the LPC, then there isn’t always high expectations of that knowledge anyway. It’s very difficult to say about the expectations on the work you will be doing as this varies massively between firms and will also depend on the department you are working in. Ultimately they will be looking for you to be interested in the work, show a willingness to give things a go, ensure the work you deliver is through and considered. Your line manager will be aware you aren’t a law graduate/at a trainee level and will ensure the tasks they give you will be of a level you could complete with a little support. I would wait until your scheme starts and see what your timetable is like for the week. The firm might put things into the schedule that will give you the opportunity to engage with its lawyers.
