  • Europe - the Next Legal IT Frontier
    The leader in legal technology news Issue 159 Europe - the next legal IT frontier Some UK legal IT suppliers are talking about breaking into the United States. Others are taking a crack at the Asia-Pacific market but if last week’s Lex Connect Europe event in Amsterdam was anything to go by, Continental Europe is the most promising marketplace of all. This view is echoed by Derk Kropholler, the vice president of sales at Solution 6 Europe, who predicts that the greatest growth in legal IT sales over the next couple of years will be in Continental Europe. Three factors are currently driving the European market. The first is the pending expansion of the EU, with law firms from the new accession states wanting to gear up so they can compete on an international basis. The second factor is a European-wide drift Buying trends - inertia away from local legacy systems vendors, to the big international rules OK ! suppliers - such as Elite and Solution 6 - who are perceived as the only ones who can provide the latest technologies. The Insider has completed its latest informal The third factor is the growing number of mid-sized European survey of legal IT buying trends. This commercial practices who believe they can carve a niche because confirms that the UK market is enjoying one the large UK and US-based multinational firms, who dominate of its busiest periods since the late 1990s but the top end of the market, do not really understand the region or there were some anomalous findings... the legal culture and are failing to provide the services European For example, our research found that businesses want.

  • Filling the Gap and Gaining Experience
    Filling the Gap and Gaining Experience - advice from a group of commercially focused lawyers and the Careers Service Use this leaflet if you are: - A graduate who has had their traineeship deferred and is looking to make good use of their time - a Diploma student or graduate looking for a traineeship - an undergraduate looking to gain experience to help you stand out in today’s competitive traineeship market A group of commercial law firms answered the three questions below and gave the following advice for making the most of a gap year, and gaining experience. 1. What tips would you give to graduates with a year (or more) to fill due to a deferred traineeship? • Do something constructive that will help them to develop as a person, be it travel, charity work, work experience - a break like that is not likely to arise again in their professional career so it should be used wisely and the time should be appreciated. • Try to be positive – see this as an opportunity. Make the most of the time you have, think of the time as an opportunity to develop yourself further rather than a negative turn in your career path. • Studying an LLM can be a good selling point but employers are likely to rate a period of work in a relevant business as highly as a taught LLM. • Possibly enquire as to whether any of the firm’s clients have any job opportunities available. • Look for pro bono opportunities or take time out to achieve personal goals such as learning a language.
