Description
Many assessment centres at the leading law firms involve a written exercise. You must write an email, a memo, or a letter to a client. You have a short time frame to analyse the issues and provide a clear, structured response.
But how do you structure the written exercise? Should you include headings? How do you know whether you are adding in enough detail, while presenting the information clearly?
The purpose of our law firm written exercise is exactly this. Based on real law firm written exercises, you will practise how to structure a written answer, analyse legal issues, and deliver advice under a strict time frame. You will receive actionable feedback on exactly what to work on, so you know how to excel in the real thing.
Technical Exercise
The technical exercise is perfect for those of you who would like to practise a contract-focussed case study. You will be given a factual scenario and a contract. It is your job to interpret the contractual provisions correctly and write a succinct response to a client.
You will also receive our Guide to Written Exercise, produced for 2024/25 to teach you how to write an outstanding written answer, approach different types of case studies, and common traps to avoid, together with our sample answer.

I just wanted to thank you for the amazing feedback provided on my written exercise attempt. This really prepared me for my assessment centre, so much so that I was offered a TC! I could not have reached this point if it was not for your guidance. The feedback was essential in making me understand what exactly it was that law firms are looking for, thus allowing me to focus on these critical aspects throughout the very stressful assessment.

Thank you so much for your feedback on both the written exercises. I found the first one quite difficult but luckily this one went great! This is exactly the confidence boost I needed before my assessment day tomorrow. I only joined the corporate academy two weeks ago and it has genuinely made the biggest difference. Every single pitfall mentioned in the interview videos was one I would’ve dived straight into and now I feel prepared for almost any question! I’ve also learnt so much about private equity which has made me feel so confident. My only regret is that I didn’t know about these resources sooner!
