Law & Legal apprenticeships

At first glance, it might sound a bit crazy that you can become a legal professional through an apprenticeship. But it actually makes perfect sense. It can be a great way to throw yourself into a challenging career, like becoming a solicitor. Law degrees can be expensive, typically four years in length. With a degree apprenticeship you can gain a law degree debt free, while earning a living wage. You can focus on legal administration, become a paralegal, or qualify as a solicitor if you wish to practice. It is also possible to use an apprenticeship to become a chartered legal executive, a hybrid position between a paralegal and solicitor which focuses on a specific legal niche.
