The Legal Update provided an extremely valuable tool in my Training Contract interview preparation. The formatting of this source was so useful in being able to digest important commercial news and think on a deeper level about how it relates to firms and their clients. This feature then enabled me to use other sources and think of the same format to digest other key news stories. The price of the yearly subscription was well worth it! I am very pleased to announce I have accepted a Training Contract offer with a Magic Circle law firm.

I secured a TC with Squire Patton Boggs! I found ZipLaw very helpful, it was easy to read and was clearly relevant to law firms. ZipLaw definitely filled in any gaps and solidified knowledge. I also found the ZipTracker very helpful when going to interviews to find out details on recent cases and stand out.

ZipLaw+ is a game changer. I prepared my applications in a fraction of the time with the ZipTracker as it gave me all the info I needed on court cases and deals the law firms I'm interested in worked on. It even explained how to discuss them in apps/interviews. The newsletters also make commercial awareness super easy. I now have two AC days booked and 1 VS confirmed. Keep up the great work.

Using ZipLaw+ has been really helpful. I’ve used it to help me draft a lot of my applications such as Reed Smith, Trowers & Hamlins and TLT just to name a few. It has definitely made it a lot easier to answer commercial awareness questions on application forms.

ZipLaw is just amazing for keeping things much more manageable and understandable. I’m non-law and new to commercial awareness so the resource has been a life saver with getting to know the legal sector. I also like how the emails are easy to read, especially with the headings and the memes, it’s all super clear and nice to read :)

My favourite commercial awareness platform. The articles are very useful and I love how they explain the impacts on law firms. The ZipTracker has saved me so much time in drafting law firm applications, being able to filter through court cases, news and deals is just fantastic.

I just secured a TC with TLT! One of the main things I was tested on was commercial awareness, both in the written application and in the assessment centre (group task and interview). I generally found commercial awareness really hard to grasp and Ziplaw really helped me with my understanding. I love how each article sets out how a topic impacts the firm and practice areas. I’m also a big fan of the ‘top trends’ articles and the ZipTracker - really valuable resources.

ZipLaw has been instrumental in helping me in my TC journey. There are so many great resources out there that help in keeping up with business news, but ZipLaw is the best when it comes to actually translating these into important legal issues and preparation for law firm applications. My favourite part is the breakdown of how particular pieces of news impact law firms, this is a truly unique and unbeatable resource when it comes to preparing for ACs and Interviews!

I've been subscribed to ZipLaw's newsletter for several months now and have found it to be an incredibly valuable resource for developing my commercial awareness. One of the things that I appreciate most about the newsletter is the way it provides clear and concise summaries of important news and events. As someone who doesn't have a lot of time to stay on top of everything, I appreciate that ZipLaw does the heavy lifting for me by highlighting the most relevant and impactful stories. In addition to the business summaries, I also love the insights that Ludo provides into how different news items might impact law firms and their clients. These analyses give me a deeper understanding of the issues at play and have been a huge help when it comes to writing up applications and preparing for interviews! Overall, I highly recommend ZipLaw's newsletter to anyone applying for vacation schemes, training contracts or just looking to stay informed and ahead of the curve. It's an extremely valuable resource that I look forward to reading every day.

Love this website! They cover so many different stories, deals and cases. I find the interview essentials section very helpful with understanding what points to bring up in an application or interview and how to discuss them to stand out. Just wish I found it sooner!!
