Work Experience

Our Work Experience applications are now open for 2025 Easter and Summer placements. 

During your structured work experience, you can expect to be assigned to one of our Trainee Solicitors to mentor you through the week. Alongside shadowing a Trainee, you will be exposed to a range of experiences which may include attending client meetings, attending court hearings, drafting legal documents, carrying out legal research and completing tasks set by solicitors.

You will have an opportunity to see the welcoming and supportive culture we have at JCP whilst also gaining invaluable insight into working at a law firm.

The 4 or 5 day placements will take place in April and August. We have opportunities in a range of teams including Lifetime Planning, Family, Injury services, Property Services, Commercial Services and our range of Litigation teams.

To apply, you must be studying a law degree or equivalent qualification. You can apply for the work experience placements by downloading an application form here. Completed application forms should be emailed to recruitment@jcpsolicitors.co.uk

The closing date for applications is Friday 21 February 2025 and you will find out if your application has been successful by Monday 3 March 2025.
