Student Trainee Arbitration - Amsterdam, Nederland - De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek

Beschrijving

Are you an eager student, looking to gain experience in a Dutch leading law firm with an international focus? Do you have specific interest in arbitration? And do you want to experience De Brauw's culture and environment for yourself? Then a student traineeship is a suitable opportunity for you

Your role as a student trainee

A student traineeship is the best way to get to know our firm and the practice, as you will get a proper view of what our lawyers do on a daily basis. As a student trainee, you will conduct legal research for the matters we work on. You will share an office with one of our lawyers, so you will be able to ask them anything - and accompany them to court hearings and client meetings. You will learn on the job, through regular contact with a partner and a senior associate on any given matter, as well as with colleagues from other practice groups. You will also be able to fully participate in all of our educational and social programmes, whether practice-specific or firmwide.

Successful arbitration requires more than mere legal expertise. Our team, together with clients and industry experts, immerse ourselves in the case. In understanding every issue and possibility, we represent our client with conviction and legal pragmatism.
