The purpose of our Summer Internship Programme is to give you a real insight into our work, people and culture, so that you can decide if Matheson is right for you.  You will experience what life in a law firm is really like, working alongside our talented legal and tax professionals and trainees on transactions for international companies and financial institutions.

You will spend four weeks working as part of the team in one of our main departments: Corporate, Finance and Capital Markets, Commercial Litigation and Dispute Resolution, Commercial Real Estate and Tax.  The work will be challenging and interesting and you will also get to enjoy an active social life.
