Burness Paull

Who are we?

Proudly based in Scotland, we work with leading organisations across the UK and internationally. Clients tell us they appreciate the breadth of our legal expertise, the depth of our talent and, crucially, the down-to-earth personality of our people. It is our single most important point of difference - a human & high-performing culture that permeates all that we do. As a truly independent law firm operating in a fast moving and challenging global landscape, we have complete license to shape our culture and determine our values in a way that sustainably supports the needs of our people, our clients, our wider community and the environment. Surpassing expectations is what drives us more than any other benchmark.

Programme details

We believe in providing law work experience that helps you shine

Investing in talent is one of Burness Paull's key goals. That's why we offer law work experience placements built around you. Each year, in partnership with PRIME, we offer students S4 to S6 the opportunity to take part in a structured law work experience placement in our Aberdeen, Edinburgh, and Glasgow offices.

As a firm Burness Paull believes the legal sector should be open to talent from all economic backgrounds. That's why we are happy to make the PRIME Commitment. It's about ensuring work experience placements are available to all students who have the drive and passion for a career in the legal sector.  If that sounds like you, and an insight into working at a top-tier commercial law firm is an exciting prospect, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note, we accept work experience applications from both those who meet the PRIME criteria and those who don't.

Applications for our legal work experience and business services work experience programmes will open in July each year. For more information relating to work experience and to enquire about applying, please email [email protected].
