Join the University of Greenwich Law Society for Beyond the Books: Legal Careers Explained, an insightful event designed to help students bridge the gap between academic study and real-world legal practice.

This interactive session will feature guest speakers from different areas of law, including trainees, paralegals, and qualified solicitors, who will share their personal journeys, offer career advice, and discuss the wide range of opportunities available within the legal profession, both traditional and alternative.

Students will gain practical insights into topics such as the SQE route, training contracts, paralegal experience, and careers beyond private practice, including roles in compliance, legal tech, and public service. The event will conclude with a Q&A session and networking opportunity, giving attendees the chance to ask questions and connect directly with speakers.

Whether you’re just starting your law degree or preparing for graduation, this event will help you see what lies beyond the books and inspire you to take your next step with confidence.
