We have developed the Paralegal Centre of Excellence, which brings together a range of paralegal skills and capabilities and provides a variety of services to both our lawyers and our clients.
A paralegal is a highly valued member of a legal team that has extensive knowledge of the law and legal matters, but is not a qualified lawyer. Paralegals undertake a wide variety of administrative and legal work. The work our paralegals do is a key part of how we deliver legal services and they can choose to specialise in a specific area of law.
Throughout your apprenticeship you will be based in one or two teams (this may include Construction & Projects, Property, Finance & Restructuring, Disputes, Intellectual Property, Cyber Data & Privacy, Employment, Corporate), enabling you to develop a good understanding of the specific areas of law. You may also have an opportunity to assist other teams depending on business needs.
The type of tasks an Apprentice Paralegal can expect to assist with on a day-to-day basis can vary but may include:
Helping to manage the documentation required in legal matters, including creating bundles of documents that will be used in court
Helping to create and maintain template documents (precedents) that will be used in legal transactions
Taking minutes and writing up notes for meetings or legal proceedings
Conducting legal research and writing up advice notes
Drafting legal documents such as settlement agreements, contracts, and legal pleadings
Other ad-hoc duties and tasks as dictated by the business and client needs
As you progress in your role, you will be introduced to more advanced tasks to help you build a portfolio and work towards the paralegal qualification.
You will be supervised by an experienced MLS (managed legal services) delivery manager and supported by your team, your buddy, and a dedicated early talent team. You will receive full training which will combine on-the-job learning and formal structured sessions to ensure you are fully equipped to succeed in the role. You will also have access to a wide range of courses available through our Pinsent Masons Learning and Development team, enabling you to develop your skills and build a successful career.
Some travel within the UK and Ireland might be required during your apprenticeship. We will help you book your travel and reimburse any travel-related business expenses in line with our policy to enable you to meet the business needs and access relevant training opportunities. Training:Paralegal Level 3 Apprenticeship Standard:
Apprentice Paralegals have a dedicated weekly study day during which they study legal foundation subjects and skills modules as well as prepare for a range of assessments. Apprentice Paralegals spend the remaining four days per week working with colleagues in the office
Throughout your studies you will complete regular tasks and receive feedback from your subject tutor, as well as meet with the Skills Coach to support your progress
Training Outcome:
Upon successful completion of your paralegal apprenticeship, you could have the opportunity to apply for paralegal roles at Pinsent Masons and explore a range of future progression opportunities available within our Paralegal Centre of Excellence.
