This area covers work about interns, placement students and similar roles within an employer’s organisation, including their pay, rights and duties. A solicitor in this field drafts and reviews internship agreements, checks pay and holiday entitlement, clarifies eligibility for minimum wage, and advises on the contribution an intern can or should make in return for experience. They handle correspondence with the employer, universities or recruiters, and, where disputes arise, represent the intern in early conciliation or tribunal settings. Guidance shapes how internships are offered and managed day to day.
Where a solicitor protects your position
Internships can hinge on wage status, benefit entitlements and protection from unfair treatment. A solicitor provides clarity on minimum wage obligations, holiday pay and other statutory rights, and can help secure remedies if those rights are breached. They ensure the internship arrangement complies with employment law and advise on the steps to resolve disputes through a fair process if issues arise.
