How it works

The Fairs are organised around a central virtual Expo hall, where students can meet 70+ leading law firms and ask questions directly to the firms’ lawyers, graduate recruitment experts and trainees. Running simultaneously to the Expo are six careers and commercial awareness workshops.

The virtual Expo hall

The virtual Expo hall is divided between large, medium and small booths, featuring 70+ leading law firms and law schools.

Check out the Expo hall from a previous Legal Cheek Virtual Law Fair:

Inside the booths there is a livestream that allows students to join in video chats with lawyers, graduate recruitment experts and trainees. Students can also submit written questions in the live chats and browse custom firm content.

Students wander between the booths while also attending any workshops they are interested in.
