“I have recently completed my LPC at BPP and achieved a Distinction. However, I do not have a training contract. I have lived and studied in Manchester for the last seven years, but I am now looking to move to London. I am still applying for TCs and I am also looking to obtain some paralegal work which could hopefully turn into a TC.
I have been pretty successful academically (ie a Commendation on the GDL, a 2:1 in my degree etc), I have completed a few vacation placements and I have various non-legal work experiences. However, so far I am struggling to obtain even paralegal work, chiefly because all vacancies seem to require at least six months experience. I am slightly at a loss about how to approach this situation and would appreciate any suggestions.”
