For the last year, 9 Gough Chambers has been unable to offer mini-pupillages because of the pandemic. We remain eager to offer information and advice to those intending to apply for pupillage in future years, and to give a sense of what a common law practice offers.
As such, we will be hosting an online Pupillage Q&A Event at 5:30pm on 1st September 2021. As well as hearing about the realities of pupillage from our newest tenants, attendees will be able to learn about the common law Bar and how to apply to 9 Gough Chambers. There will also be time for questions and answers with junior tenants. More information will be announced in due course.
