Overview

Established in 1902, Allen & Gledhill has grown from a colonial partnership of two to become one of the largest and leading firms in Singapore, with a notable and increasing presence in the South-east Asian region. Combining our time-honoured traditions of delivering excellent service to clients and a bold and dynamic vision for the future of legal practice, we seek to provide our clients with the value-added and practical solutions suited to the modern economy and an inter-connected world. In this internship you will have the opportunity to do actual legal work.

Details

Whether it is dealing with the most complex and demanding of structures, breaking new ground in emerging areas of law and business, or achieving win-win results for our clients, we are committed to our mission of giving you our best as trusted advisers, and of working with you to achieve your desired outcomes.

An internship with us will provide you with a better understanding of our many specialised practice areas and will help you to decide which area of practice you are interested in. During your internship, you will be mentored by a Partner and will shadow an Associate who will help you get the most out of your internship.

Our internship programmes are designed to allow you to experience life as a lawyer and to gain an insight into our Firm's culture. You will have the opportunity to attend court hearings and client meetings, as well as to work on actual matters and undertake tasks such as preparing research memorandums and drafting legal documentation. You will also be invited to participate in training programmes organised for our lawyers so that you have an idea of the training you can expect to receive as a Practice Trainee and an Associate. Needless to say, our interns are also invited to join all social events, including our traditional welcome drinks for interns.

INTERNSHIP PERIODS

We run four structured internship programmes, during which time you can join us for a period of three weeks. For 2022, the internship programme periods are:

  1. 9 May to 27 May
  2. 6 June to 24 June
  3. 4 July to 22 July
  4. 8 August to 26 August

Whilst we do accept applications for internships outside of these periods on an ad hoc basis, we would encourage students to join us for the internship programmes as there will be planned activities and lectures for students.

Description of Ideal Candidate

  • We don't have fixed criteria when assessing internship applications and will consider each application holistically. While a strong academic performance would stand an applicant in good stead, we also consider other aspects such as an applicant's interests, extra-curricular activities and leadership roles.
  • We suggest that you start doing internships during or after you have completed your second year of law school as you will derive more value from your internship after you have some basic legal training.
