I was excited to gain insight into the real work of a Weil, Gotshal & Manges trainee. Delving from macro-economic context into the micro legal analysis of NDA clause carve-outs, building full transaction structure charts and applying specific statutory provisions to determine legal status of companies -- felt less of a chore and more of a chess game.

The experience was eye opening and interesting; I enjoyed the section to do with creating a structure chart of a proposed transaction involving a number of SPVs known as "Topcos" and "Midcos" and "Bidcos"- this was something new I had not experienced on Forage or during any exercise at a law firm and was challenging. Thank you for putting this program together. Ashutosh Fatania

It was an incredibly hands on experience, where I felt I was doing real work. It gave a true insight into the work I could be doing on the vacation scheme/the training contract programme. I would recommend it to anyone looking for an insight into the legal profession or for the work at Weil. It equipped me with more transferable skills I can use now, and in my future legal career.
