Local sixth-form students will have the chance to gain a glimpse into the dynamic world of law this Easter.
Island firm DQ Advocates is once again running Insight Days, an initiative which provides an opportunity for young people to immerse themselves into the legal profession.
Applications close on Thursday, March 27 with application forms available on the DQ website or by emailing: internships@dq.im
World of Law
Hosted during the Easter school holidays at the offices of the Douglas-based practice, the Insight Days have been organised by DQ Advocates’ Future Leaders’ Board.
It has arranged a programme of activities, including informative sessions in the areas of corporate law, dispute resolution, regulatory and compliance, the daily life of a trainee and advocacy workshops.
Jessica McManus, Senior Associate and member of the Future Leaders’ Board, said: “This scheme offers first-hand experience of the legal environment, outlines the diverse aspects of a legal practice and explores the development of their skills and knowledge in practical scenarios.
“In recent years, students who have taken part have been so enthusiastic and found the Insight Days to be informative, gaining a comprehensive understanding of all areas of the legal field. We are excited to meet the cohort of 2025 in a few weeks’ time.”
Interested students do not need to be studying law to apply.
