Mary Sofolabo Says...
"I worked as an paralegal for STL for several years. It provided me with the avenue to be able to experience different aspects of law in an environment where I could be a part of the mechanism. I have had the opportunity to attend cases held in the County Courts to the Old Bailey, to the High Court.
I now work as a paralegal in a solicitors firm and have been able to use my experiences I have learnt while working as a paralegal this includes been able to organise myself and been able to liase with clients in order to ascertain how we can be of assistance.As an aspiring solicitor working as a paralegal helped me come to a decision in terms of what area I wanted to specialise in. It was a great opportunity to have worked with STL and wish them the best in the future."
Tariq Ail Says...
"After graduating from university I was unsure as to whether I wanted to train as a barrister or a solicitor. Working with STL has afforded me the opportunity to get a real taste of the day to day workings within the court system.
I have performed paralegal tasks at criminal, civil and family matters in addition to lodging bundles and applications. This exposure, to the focused and at times stressful experience of being at a trial, I feel has broadened my skills as well as made me more efficient and confident in a professional working environment.
It has also afforded a unique advantage to discuss with solicitors and barristers what their jobs are like "on the ground", I would recommend becoming a paralegal to anyone who is unsure about their career path after graduation as much salient advice will be forthcoming."

Darren J. Sylvester
"After Bar School I clerked with STL for 2 months. This experience was invaluable as I regaularly came into contact with barristers while taking detailed and contemporaneous notes of a Hearing for solicitors, thereby building up my legal contacts. CPerforming as a paralegal with STL saw me attend most of the courts within London and I gained further knowledge of practical procedures and processes that complimented my knowledge from the vocational stage of training. For me, being a Paralegal with STL was a definite plus on the CV when making pupillage applications".
