Bachelor of Laws Graduates

Kara Firth
Corrs Chambers Westgarth Graduate Lawyer

I completed a clerkship at Corrs Chambers Westgarth in the August/September 2011 semester break. During my clerkship, I spent most of my time in the Planning, Environment and Local Government practice group. This is the area of law I am most passionate about, and I found the work not only incredibly useful towards developing my skills and knowledge, but also very enjoyable.

Matt Hartsukyer
Ashurst Graduate Lawyer

In February 2011, I completed a four week clerkship with Ashurst Australia, where I am currently a graduate lawyer. Ashurst is a global commercial law firm with 24 offices in 14 countries and over 1700 lawyers. We act for some of the world's largest companies on some of the largest and most interesting commercial transactions happening in the market today. If your goal is to work for a top-tier law firm such as Ashurst, securing a seasonal clerkship is highly important.

Madison Bone
Clayton Utz Graduate Lawyer

I was lucky enough to start my "CU" experience at the end of my high school years. In 2006, I received the Clayton Utz Corporate Scholarship for Bond University. Being a corporate scholar meant I was able to begin a relationship with CU throughout my law degree, and have exposure to the firm and its people from an early stage.

Travis Monczko
Minter Ellison Graduate Lawyer

My clerkship experience at Minter Ellison turned out to be a little bit unconventional... I started as a vacation clerk at the firm in January 2011, in the Finance practice group. My first day went smoothly enough – I enjoyed getting to know the nine other clerks, met some of the people I would be working with and started training on the Minter Ellison systems.
