I enjoyed how practical and realistic the tasks were. The simulation provided hands-on experience with drafting risk disclosures, reviewing and redlining contracts, and conducting M&A due diligence. It gave me a better understanding of the day-to-day work of a corporate lawyer and helped strengthen my legal drafting, analytical, and client communication skills.

It gave me hands-on experience with contract review, due diligence, drafting client communications, identifying legal risks, and making redline revisions. The tasks were well structured and helped me better understand the responsibilities of a commercial law associate.
