Are you an eager student, looking to gain experience in a Dutch leading law firm with an international focus? Do you have specific interest in criminal law? And do you want to experience De Brauw's culture and environment for yourself? Then a student traineeship is a suitable opportunity for you!
Your role as a student trainee
A student traineeship is the best way to get to know our firm and the practice, as you will get a proper view of what our lawyers do on a daily basis. As a student trainee, you will conduct legal research for the matters we work on. You will share an office with one of our lawyers, so you will be able to ask them anything - and accompany them to court hearings and client meetings. You will learn on the job, through regular contact with a partner and a senior associate on any given matter, as well as with colleagues from other practice groups. You will also be able to fully participate in all of our educational and social programmes, whether practice-specific or firmwide.
The practice
Our Regulatory & Criminal Enforcement practice specialises in handling our clients' most sensitive and complex regulatory and criminal defence matters, as well as their compliance and integrity issues. We offer comprehensive guidance throughout the entire process, including legal crisis management, internal investigations, public disclosures, and representation before regulators and criminal authorities. Our successful track record involves resolving cases through declinations, settlements, or litigation, with many matters remaining confidential. We adopt an integrated and multidisciplinary approach, leveraging expertise in corporate governance, finance, data protection, financial markets regulation, and civil litigation. Our work covers bribery, fraud, market abuse, money laundering, accounting irregularities, cybercrime, and more, spanning sectors like finance, energy, manufacturing, technology, and healthcare.
We are looking for someone who is…
• a third-year Bachelor or a Master's student, with a strong academic record
• eager and excited to learn
• meticulous and well organised
• proactive
• fluent in Dutch and English
