Pupillage programme

While a pupil is assigned a pupil master, the pupillage programme in Ramdas & Wong is a centralised one. The pupil will be given work by other lawyers in the firm.

The pupil’s work is monitored by partners in charge of the pupillage programme to ensure that the pupil has as wide an exposure to legal practice as is possible in the short six months period of pupillage. At the start of the pupillage programme, the pupil will be attached to the Litigation and Corporate Departments. He/she will be assigned drafting work (pleadings, affidavits, submissions), research work, and solicitors’ work. Where possible, the pupil will be given the case file to follow through, including attending meetings with clients and attending court with lawyers.

At the end of three months, the pupil will be rotated and be attached to the Conveyancing Department for exposure to property transactions (including sale, purchase, financing, re-financing). The pupil will be given feedback from time to time regarding his/her progress.

Retention will depend on whether there is a need for lawyers at the time the pupil completes his/her pupillage. However, Ramdas & Wong is prepared to invest in pupils and young lawyers who prove themselves able during the pupillage period. Historically, the retention rate of pupils at Ramdas & Wong is in the range of 60%.

We are looking for candidates who are prepared to work hard, learn, are proactive and who can work as a team member. If you are interested in applying to us for a place for pupillage, you may send in your application with curriculum vitae and recent photograph to:
