We have a commitment to all newly employed law clerks, graduates, and trainee lawyers to provide the best training without the expected pressures of meeting billable quotas. We consider the first two years after graduation to be the most important part of your career, as you will develop the fundamental skills to enable you to become a proficient legal practitioner. At Ramsden Lawyers we do not believe in throwing graduates in the deep end to “sink or swim” as the saying goes, but rather we focus on ensuring that you are taught and trained at a pace that is manageable, while allowing you to identify the practice area you may wish to focus on in your legal career.
At Ramsden Lawyers our employed graduates have the benefit of being mentored by a number of highly specialised senior lawyers. In addition to senior supervision, we also encourage our associates and junior lawyers to engage in peer-to-peer mentoring with graduates. In our experience this helps students to transition from their studies into a professional environment right at our Gold Coast law firm.
We have a number of various career entry programs that are designed to offer opportunities to individuals who are seeking a career in the legal profession. Our programs are tailored to meet the demand of each individual throughout various stages in their legal career.
Our programs include:
Each of these programs offer individuals the opportunity to be exposed to a law practice environment, and in turn affords an opportunity to be considered for full-time employment as a practicing solicitor
