We see mentoring as a key element of achieving this aim and the role of the mentor will be hugely valuable to the successful applicants throughout their qualification process.

Lawscot Foundation mentors are solicitors or trainee solicitors who support, encourage and guide students – known as ‘mentees’ - through their legal education journey as they make the transition from school to university, then later into the workplace.

 

Applications for mentors are now closed.

If you are interested in becoming a mentor, we will open the application process in August 2025.
