https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2008/05/29/interviews
Pupillage and How to Get It. May 29, 2008. Welcome back. A combination of idleness, lack of topics, computers tumbling like ninepins (although it is tenpin bowling – does anyone have an explanation? And work have meant a long silence. But it was a long time ago. Regard what comes below as additional information. 8217; They will say ‘fine’, whether it did or not, and they will label you as (justifiably) nervous. Say goodbye – and go. I hope that helps. Don’t be frightened to fail. Providing ...I’m s...

Yes or No is an Individual Choice | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2015/07/07/yes-or-no-is-an-individual-choice
Pupillage and How to Get It. Yes or No is an Individual Choice. July 7, 2015. It’s good that the CBA has published an article by Simon Csoka QC about why we should take action. These are important decisions: both sides need to be heard. I have read the piece with care. I believe it is inaccurate and weakly argued. If you click on the link below, you will see the piece and my comments. Please feel free to make up you own mind. And, whichever way you go, please vote. But the essential point is right. How a...

Have You Got What It Takes? | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2007/11/23/have-you-got-what-it-takes
Pupillage and How to Get It. Have You Got What It Takes? November 23, 2007. I have been reflecting on the do’s and don’ts of what is required to succeed at the Bar other than intellect and sheer good fortune. Some solicitors are apparently prepared to tolerate eccentricity. But it seems to me that most are not. Offer at the beginning. My late Head of Chambers, Brian Walsh QC. And arrogant and unpleasant, so everyone hates them.” Don’t be X. From → Qualities Required.

What Are We Gonna Do Now? | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2015/04/23/what-are-we-gonna-do-now
Pupillage and How to Get It. What Are We Gonna Do Now? April 23, 2015. What Are We Gonna Do Now? A confident prediction that the MoJ will dishonour the agreement. There is no basis to adopt that position. At best it is a wild guess. At worst it is scare-mongering. However, that isn’t the end of the story. So, I believe we should work on the basis that what is coming, if the Tories win this election, is the catastrophe of which the solicitors warn. We can disregard the Lib Dems as they are utterly una...

Decision | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2015/07/11/decision
Pupillage and How to Get It. July 11, 2015. Ultimately, this is where I think this debate has got to. I have taken the claims of those on each side at the proponents’ own estimation. An asterisk indicates where I think that is a higher estimation than must necessarily be taken. I have tried to set out what each side says will be achieved, or lost, first followed by what might be called more general reasons to support its position. It would bring the courts to a halt. In any event, striking is justified b...

The Silence of the Lambs | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2015/07/24/the-silence-of-the-lambs
Pupillage and How to Get It. The Silence of the Lambs. July 24, 2015. So far, no one has answered the questions posed yesterday. According to Facebook there is a solicitor (I think Ash Bhatia but the post was a little ambiguous, so if it isn’t him I apologise) who has powerful answers to every point, but he isn’t going to give them. Caveat emptor. However, things are a little clearer because some people have commented on some issues:. Michael Turner has made it clear. For reasons that currently escape me...

M.A.s and Other Further Academic Degrees | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2007/07/01/mas-and-other-further-academic-degrees
Pupillage and How to Get It. MAs and Other Further Academic Degrees. July 1, 2007. However, in those far-off days the Bar was expanding. Nowadays people are looking for an edge and there is much debate about whether an MA provides it. If one looks at poor sets (no names – it’s more than my life is worth) then an MA is equally absent as a distinguishing mark. Worked for the guys in the USA who try and save death row prisoners. Qualified as a foreign lawyer. Ran a Student Union. From → Further Degrees.

The Law of Unintended Consequences | Pupillage and How to Get It
https://pupillageandhowtogetit.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/the-law-of-unintended-consequences
Pupillage and How to Get It. The Law of Unintended Consequences. July 23, 2015. The position is this:. The Bar has come out to support the solicitors. Extraordinarily, that part of the motion proposed that permitted the solicitors to tell the Bar when they could go back to work remains unaltered and unclarified. The Bar having accepted no returns, the solicitors are refusing to do Crown Court work. That means the main type of work for the criminal Bar will dry up shortly. I entirely understand why solici...
