Why an internship at Wintertaling?

'What specifically attracted me to Wintertaling are the many areas of law in which Wintertaling operates and its unique corporate structure. During your internship, you will primarily support lawyers in sorting out legal issues. In addition, there is of course room to go along to hearings and client meetings. This offers an excellent opportunity to explore different facets of the legal profession and to be directly involved in the work of experienced lawyers.'

How did you like your internship?

'During my internship, I collaborated on a variety of issues, for example, researching a specific qualification from the Environment Act. The biggest challenge was setting up a good ongoing schedule regarding multiple ongoing assignments. Thanks to this internship, I got a better idea of the practical side of law, something that had been little covered during my studies. Wintertaling has given me a completely new picture of the legal profession. Starting next school year, I will start the Master's in Commercial Legal Practice at the UvA and I recommend future student interns to go through their internship with an open mind. The working atmosphere at Wintertaling is very accessible and from day one you already feel part of the team.'
