You don't need work experience to apply for a law degree.

If your college/sixth form is insisting you get work experience then contacting your local solicitors ( http://www.lawsociety.org.uk/ ) is worth trying. As well as your local magistrates and crown courts or your nearest CAB/council advice services.

But if none of this works then don't worry - a law degree is an academic degree, you don't need work experience in your PS to get an offer - there's many (better) ways to get an insight into the subject and degree (http://university.which.co.uk/advice/personal-statements/personal-statement-advice-law-students )
