Alongside this financial support, scholars will be guaranteed a place on Dentons Open Days, gain access to mentoring, and regularly meet with our Early Careers team and trainees. They will develop their understanding of commercial law through various opportunities to build connections with legal professionals and insight events.

  • Intend to complete a full-time undergraduate law degree in the UK, but have not commenced one yet.
  • Hold a strong academic record.

For Scottish applicants, please note you must be applying to undertake a three-year Common Law degree as well as the criteria above. If you have any questions around your eligibility, please get in touch with our Early Careers Team at earlycareers@dentons.com.
