SAL Post-Qualifications Overseas Attachments 2019/2020 

The Singapore Academy of Law Post-Qualification Overseas Attachments, inaugurated in 2011, expose deserving young lawyers to best practices in litigation or arbitration. The programme aims to raise the standard in these areas of practice in Singapore and also allow attachment awardees to serve as role models for other lawyers. Awardees spend up to 12 weeks with leading sets of barristers' chambers in London to gain international experience and exposure and are required to continue working in the Singapore legal industry for a minimum for 18 months in institutions approved by SAL after completing their attachments. They are also expected to take on active roles in SAL programmes after returning from their attachments.
