Staying true to your direction is what defines Clayton Utz. We've built a culture that's unlike any other law firm, but don't just take our word for it. A good lawyer needs compelling evidence so meet our people and judge for yourself.
Your Clerkship Experience
If you're a student in your penultimate year, our Clerkship Programs will expose you to the fast pace of a full-service commercial law firm and show you the law in action. You'll be working under the guidance of some of the sharpest legal minds in Australia, on challenging, complex and high-profile transactions and matters. You'll be mentored by partners and lawyers who are leaders in their fields, in a firm where individuality is embraced and innovation actively encouraged.
Our 4 week (Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth) and 11-week programs (Sydney and Canberra) give you orientation, followed by two rotations in different practice areas. You'll also get additional training, networking opportunities and be part of our social activities.
In Sydney and Canberra we run one 11-week Clerkship Program every year. This year it runs from 26 November 2018 - 8 February 2019.
In Melbourne and Perth we run two 4-week Clerkship Programs every year, in Summer (November/December 2018) and Winter (June/July 2019).
