Why law students should do a Mini-Pupillage during their LLB (Hons) degree?

What is Mini Pupillage?

University of London LLB students spend their 3 years of legal study with a complete focus on the academic side of the law. This creates a gap in their understanding of legal procedures and court ethics. A Mini Pupillage is a legal training under the supervision of a High Court Lawyer of a practicing Barrister. Students work on real cases and provide input to their supervising Barristers through legal research and assistance in the court.
