Secrets to Success London

With Ashurst, CMS, Goodwin Procter and ULaw

THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED.

Legal Cheek is in London for the latest in its new 2023 series of IN-PERSON Secrets to Success events – in association with The University of Law (ULaw) – to help students boost their commercial awareness ahead of vacation schemes and training contract interviews.

The event takes place on Tuesday 21 February at ULaw London Moorgate, and features lawyers from leading law firms Ashurst, CMS and Goodwin Procter, alongside a careers expert from ULaw.

The speakers will share their secrets to success, telling the stories of their career journeys, while advising students on how they can best position themselves to obtain training contracts with leading firms. Up for discussion will also be the key commercial awareness topics students need to have on their radar.

 Oscar Jeremy, solicitor in the transport and infrastructure team at Ashurst
• Vanessa Whitman, solicitor advocate and partner in the finance and fintech disputes team at CMS
• Angus Simpson, senior associate in the private equity team at Goodwin Procter
Nick Squire, tutor at ULaw and former partner at Freshfields

After the Question Time-style discussion, which will be chaired by a Legal Cheek journalist, there will be networking over drinks and snacks with the speakers, trainees from the firms and members of their graduate recruitment teams.
