Seeking Part-Time Legal Employment in London
Hello everyone
I am currently studying law at the University of Zurich and will graduate this summer. In parallel to my studies, I work part-time as a legal employee in a law firm. In the summer I will start the LLM at Kings College London. I would like to continue working part-time in a law firm in London. I am wondering if it is common in the UK/London to work as a law student in a law firm and if so, which firms are particularly recommended?
Thanks

There are not many part time employment opportunities at London law firms for people who are not qualified lawyers. You could try emailing your CV to various law firms asking if they have any such opportunities. You'd probably be better off aiming at medium sized firms rather than very big firms. You can research law firms via Chambers and Partners and The Legal 500.
