Providing case studies

A number of LSC funded trainees have provided case studies of their legal aid careers to date. These give future trainees more insight into life as a trainee and the backgrounds many of our trainees have come from.

Case studies of previous LSC funded trainees are available on our website.

If you’d like to submit a case study, please complete the form in the documents panel.

LSC trainee forum

We have opened an LSC trainee forum on Linked in.
