Introduction from Pinsent Masons

Reviews

4.7

I highly valued the depth of the tasks. The simulation did not compromise on legal complexity, allowing me to maintain my academic rigor throughout. It served as an excellent bridge between my postgraduate studies and high-stakes commercial practice, proving that detailed, analytical research is essential for delivering top-tier client advice.

I enjoyed all of the tasks as they gave great insight into not only the tasks that would be involved as a trainee at Pinsent Masons, but also how these tasks will be communicated and the expected tone of response. The voice recording task was unlike any job simulation I have completed on Forage and made the experience feel a lot more real.

I came into this simulation with no practical commercial law experience. The programme showed me exactly how a Pinsent Masons trainee supports clients on live projects balancing technical law like s44 CA 2006 and IBA conflict rules with clear, commercial client communication. It’s cemented my interest in joining the team.
