On April 24th, 2015, Chinese Law LL.M. Program students and some exchange students visited Clifford Chance Law Firm. They had a special experience there.

The law firm arranged a nice lunch seminar. Students were first served with delicious food. Helen, a counsel of the law firm, then warmly welcomed the Chinese Law students. To begin with, she gave a brief introduction of the law firm and its history, lawyers and associates who work in the law firm.

Then, students raised many questions, such as relationship between different foreign law firms, professionals’ education background, popular cases in Beijing, malpractice cases, the process to be a good lawyer and so on. Counsel Helen and other associates answered the questions patiently. Besides, they also talked about why they chose to be a lawyer, which greatly inspired the students.

Through the visit, students learned more knowledge about law firms, the process to be a lawyer, how to be a good lawyer and so on. At last, our Law School and Clifford Chance Law Firm exchanged gifts, and took group photos together. They all expressed great satisfaction to this visit and anxious interest of future fieldwork activities.
