Description
x10-years after my training contract at Latham & Watkins LLP and mentoring many aspiring lawyers, I decided to document my personal blueprint that took me from being a law student to qualified solicitor.
Get Into Law is a 10-step personal-development book, enabling you to make your own unique leap from student to solicitor. Get into Law has been workshopped and purchased by UK universities and schools, including but not limited to Kings College London, City University, Westminster University, the GDST. It is also part of the Mayor of London's Inspire my Career programme with LMP Action. Chapters include my personal 3-step Commercial Awareness methodology, Mindset-development practice and steps on Future-proofing your legal career. Get Into Law is described as 'an insiders-guide to getting a training contract', 'a pocket-mentor' and 'a tool to accelerate student employability'. Available on Amazon UK and US, and worldwide, Barnes and Noble. For further information on workshops and speaking events, please contact me via LinkedIn. ***TESTIMONIALS "This book is a practical, jargon free guide for helping students considering careers in law. Meera's tone and confidence building messages are particularly great for students from backgrounds underrepresented in the legal sector. Highly recommended!"
- Gemma Kenyon, Director, Careers and Employability, City University "A must have in every school and university in the UK!!
As a careers and employability professional, law remains one of those industries that students want to enter - whether it be because of the prestige, the fact you can be client facing and analytical at the same time or the financial security the industry offers. Given so many more young people go to university, many from a low socio-economic backgrounds, it can get pretty hard for an individual to navigate how to access this competitive profession. Get Into Law offers a practical and insightful guide to help young people take the steps to becoming a solicitor. I thought this book was very informative and useful. It answered lots of questions and should be a staple on any LLB course reading list. Meera shares her own insight but makes it inclusive and accessible for any aspiring lawyer to work through the exercises and answer the thought provoking questions. It's a great book!"
- Mona Vadher, Executive leader, Head of Strategy, Progress Together "This book is written in very clear and direct language, easy for a student to read and with lots of practical tips. The workbook is also very useful"
- Peter Emerton, Head of Law, Peter Symonds College Winchester "What every university career department should be advising their students
A candid, open book on how to understand what is important to you when applying for a training contract, staying true to yourself, and stepping away from linear thinking. Meera highlights the importance of attitude and approach and encourages the reader to learn about combining resilience and strategic thinking. Notable highlights include a 3-step methodology on Commercial Awareness, which everyone could benefit from, the importance of networking and the final invaluable chapter on future proofing one's career, especially in today's rapidly changing society. Any reader will walk away with renewed vigour, encouraged to forge a career path unique to themselves. Although the target audience is law students, the principles discussed may be applied to any professional during their early career years."
