A decade on the legal path - a system built from it

Taz has been on the legal path for over a decade and during that time he has sent out countless pupillage applications and attended hundreds of pupillage interviews across 5 cycles. He has spent the past few years providing free support to Bar students by reviewing their pupillage applications and preparing candidates for pupillage interviews.

During that time, he perfected a proven system which has helped hundreds of aspiring barristers secure pupillage. The challenges Taz faced breaking into the legal profession motivated his passion to found Lexstery β€” supporting fellow aspiring lawyers on their journeys into the legal profession in England and Wales.
