Insights into Community-based legal practice and Legal Volunteering (Pro Bono) with the Brunel Legal Advice Clinic

While the most visible law firms are often the big City firms who recruit a high volume of trainees, there are many thousands of solicitors doing valued and valuable work at supporting individuals in their local communities, whether at a local ("High Street") law firm or Law Centres or Pro Bono Clinics, such as the Brunel Legal Advice Clinic.

In this talk Anjali Kemwal, the Pro Bono Director at Brunel, will share her insights into the benefits and realities of community-based practice and offer guidance on how students can get started in building their careers in a local community setting.

As an experienced pro bono lawyer working across student pro bono projects in two universities over 10 years, Anjali will point out the benefits of pro bono on your CV and why it’s essential for your job search.
