GDL/LPC
Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL)
Students required to complete the GDL may do so at a college provider of their choice. GDL fees are paid in full for all our future trainees and you will also receive a £7,000 maintenance grant for courses studied in London, Guildford and Oxford and £6,250 for courses studied elsewhere.
Legal Practice Course (LPC)
All our trainees study the LPC at the London Holborn branch of BPP Law School. You will study with those going to other firms during the compulsory elements of the LPC from September to February. From March you will study a separate set of electives, designed for our trainees to take together so you are better prepared for work in our distinctive range of practice areas.
Whilst undertaking the LPC as a future trainee you will attend a series of seminars in our offices in order to link your study with the practice of law at Macfarlanes. The seminars, along with various social events, also help to give you a fuller introduction to the firm, your fellow trainees and your future colleagues.
LPC fees are paid in full for all our future trainees and you will receive a £7,000 maintenance grant.
