ABSTRACT
On the positive side, the new system will change the way in which junior lawyers
are hired. Instead of employing recently qualified lawyers law firms will hire students
on the master’s courses; in this way companies can begin training their employees
during this time and, of course, trying them out as prospective lawyers. This will be
a positive outcome for the whole system, as law firms will have an interest in actively
promoting high quality master’s degrees. In fact, in addition to the interaction
between bars and universities, law firms are also expected to become increasingly
involved in law faculty affairs.
