Welcome
Launched in January 2008 for junior lawyers across England and Wales, the JLD is a division of the Law Society with an independent voice. This free membership group is aimed at student members of the Law Society enrolled through the SRA, trainees, and solicitors with up to five years' active PQE.
The JLD is all about its members and their needs. To enable us to represent you, we want to hear from you. E-mail us at juniorlawyers@lawsociety.org.uk
JLD website - could you write for us?
The Law Society's Junior Lawyer Division website is currently being expanded to better support your needs. Over the coming months we'll be introducing new content areas and community features, and we're inviting JLD members to contribute.
