It’s worth noting that as a junior lawyer, you are most likely not going to be single-handedly winning cases or closing deals. To create a good impression and build your personal reputation, you therefore have to find alternative ways of adding value and demonstrating your abilities wherever possible.

This is important, as people talk.

Accordingly, the content in this course has been designed to help you boost your efficiency and effectiveness, improve your ability to interact with supervisors and clients, and enhance your professional skills more generally.

Please do bear in mind that firms have their own ways of doing things and that the tips, insights and explanations provided are subjective at times and based only on what happened to work well for, or resonate with, me. Accordingly, always check – and prioritise – your firm’s (and your supervisors’) training materials, best practice guides, internal resources and preferred approaches to work.
