I particularly enjoyed the variety of tasks, as well as the insightful explanations and constructive feedback provided throughout. The simulation offered valuable insight into the day-to-day responsibilities of trainees and a practical understanding of what it is like to work as part of an M&A team.

The simulation provided a realistic and practical understanding of M&A due diligence. I particularly enjoyed comparing disclosure schedules with acquisition agreements to spot material risks like IP co-ownership, undisclosed liabilities, and compliance issues, which mirrored real-world corporate legal practice.

The simulation was well-structured and practical, giving a clear understanding of how NDAs and due diligence work in real acquisition scenarios. The questions were realistic and helped reinforce key legal and commercial concepts, especially around confidentiality, data protection, and risk identification.
