The Practitioner Programme is a four month training and work experience programme:

• Month 1 — structured legal theory training, delivered hybrid in London and online.
• Months 2 to 4 — three months of voluntary work experience inside a UK law firm in our employer network.

The structure, curriculum, cohort start dates and placement firm allocation are at our reasonable discretion and may be amended from time to time.

Applications are free. Submitting an application does not guarantee admission. We assess each applicant against the programme criteria and reserve the right to decline any application at our discretion.

If you are offered a place, your participation is conditional on signing our candidate agreement, paying the programme fee in line with our published payment terms, and completing reasonable onboarding steps including identity checks.

Programme fees, payment schedule and any available bursaries or scholarships are confirmed in writing as part of your offer. Fees are payable in line with the schedule set out in your candidate agreement.

Once your cohort start date has passed and theory training has commenced, programme fees are non refundable except where required by law. We may, in our discretion, offer a deferral to a later cohort in cases of serious illness or other exceptional circumstances on evidence.

During the programme you agree to:

• Attend training sessions, clinics and placement days, and notify your mentor or the placement firm in advance of any absence.
• Conduct yourself professionally and follow the placement firm's policies, including those relating to confidentiality, data protection, ethics and IT security.
• Treat client information and firm material as strictly confidential, both during and after the placement.
• Avoid any conflict of interest and disclose any such matter promptly to us and to the placement firm.

Failure to comply may result in termination of your placement or removal from the programme without refund.

All training materials, curricula, templates and other content provided by Crestfield Legal are protected by copyright and other intellectual property rights and are licensed to you on a personal, non transferable basis solely for the purpose of completing the programme.

Work product you produce during placement on a firm's client files belongs to the firm. You may not copy, share, publish or use any such material outside the placement.

We use reasonable care and skill in delivering the programme. We do not, however, guarantee that any candidate will be placed at a particular firm, that any placement will lead to an offer of paid employment, or that any specific outcome will be achieved.

This website and the programme are not a substitute for qualification with the Solicitors Regulation Authority, the Bar Standards Board or any other regulator, and nothing on this website constitutes legal advice.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Crestfield Legal LLC's total liability to you in connection with these terms, the website and the programme is limited to the programme fees actually paid by you in the twelve months preceding the relevant claim.

We exclude liability for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profits, loss of opportunity, loss of reputation, and loss of data, except where such exclusion is not permitted by law.

Personal data you provide is handled in line with our privacy notice. By using this website and applying to the programme, you consent to that processing.

We may amend these terms from time to time. The version posted on this website at the time you apply, or at the time of any later transaction, is the version that applies. We will update the "last updated" date above when we make changes.

These terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates. Disputes will be dealt with by the competent courts of the United Arab Emirates, save where mandatory consumer rules in your country of residence give you the right to bring proceedings there.
