Please email pa204@kent.ac.uk for CV and further details.

OLIVER PEARCE, a third year student at Bristol University - where I am studying Law and French. Having spent this year in France, studying for a Diplome Universitaire at Poitiers University, I am now looking for work experience between now and when I return to Bristol in early October. Based in Sevenoaks - though willing to travel - I would like to get as wide an exposure as possible to different spheres of the law. Having enjoyed success in debating at university, I hope to end up in litigation, though am unsure as to what area I would like to specialise in - or perhaps more accurately what I would be best at - and as such am looking to get as varied experience as I can. I would be very keen to get in touch if any opportunities are available.
