Our programme will prepare you for the Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE), the new route to qualification that is coming into effect from Autumn 2021. The SQE training programme will take the form of a Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeship and allows you to start working and earning at Kennedys immediately after university, while gaining qualifying legal work experience in one of our teams before sitting the SQE1 and SQE2 exams to qualify as a solicitor. You will also be awarded a Postgraduate Certificate from BPP.

The two year six-month training programme will involve working at Kennedys four days a week and having one day off a week to study at BBP. In addition to a dedicated supervisor at Kennedys, you will have a tutor and skills coach at BPP, to ensure that you have all the support you need at work and with your studies.

Team

Kennedys' Casualty Coverage team advises on high value and complex coverage disputes, which tend to involve more than one jurisdiction, sometimes resulting in forum and choice of law disputes.

The range of work undertaken by the team includes insurance cover for complex product liability, pharmaceutical, environmental and professional risks. The team has particular expertise in advising on coverage disputes involving Bermuda Form wordings.

Our partners work closely with associates to deliver high levels of client service and are presently advising on food recall claims; claims in a range of foreign jurisdictions following environmental disasters (dam collapses); claims concerning opiods; implants; talcum powder; large fire loss; rocket failures; offshore trustee claims; cladding claims post Grenfell fire; claims involving IT software providers, etc. We have strong capabilities to advise clients in Germany/on German law disputes as a number of our team are dual qualified.
