Career Prospects with a Law LLB
King’s law graduates are popular with many types of employers. The majority of our students choose to become solicitors in a wide range of firms including The Magic Circle, US and other leading law firms and specialist niche firms. Some choose broader business roles such a financial analyst, management consultant or graduate trainee.
Others find their law degree opens up opportunities in international development, advisory work, the public sector and teaching. Although the employment market is competitive, our students have been very successful in obtaining posts with the firms or sets of chambers for which they wanted to work.
Our dedicated King’s Law Careers Service provides you with all the information and activities you need to make an informed career choice and to increase your chances of success.

I plan to be a commercial lawyer, and King's career support has been extremely helpful in guiding me through the admission process to the firms. From the written application stage to the interview stage, the career support team has put on workshops to help me understand how to navigate the difficult process.


King's connects me to numerous career opportunities such as networking events, professional panels and even recruitment presentations by the law firms themselves. This really helps me navigate the job market as I get to hear authentic experiences from the experts in the field.
