A pupillage at 4 New Square will give you a real insight into what it is like to practise in a leading commercial set of chambers. Our barristers have a strong reputation for commercial litigation, professional negligence, construction, product liability, financial services, insurance work, international arbitration, sports law and public law. Our aim is to recruit four new tenants each year and it is our express intention, wherever possible, to source those tenants from our own 12 month pupils. As it is our hope and ambition that each of our pupils should reach the required objective standard for tenancy, it follows that our general recruitment practice is to select four 12 month pupils each year. We do not stream our pupils and each has an equal prospect of securing a tenancy.
