What is the day in a life like as an apprentice?

A typical day as a solicitor apprentice involved a mix of real legal work and studying. On a work-day I would start by checking emails and prioritising tasks, then spend most of the day supporting solicitors on live matters, drafting documents, carrying out research, speaking to clients, and progressing cases. As I gained experience, I was trusted with more responsibility and began running parts of matters myself under supervision. Alongside this, I had dedicated study time for coursework and exams but I would usually do some revision or study after work to keep on top of things.
