Hi there,
I'm almost 40 and have worked as a law librarian in various firms over the past 10 years. However, I have decided that I don't want to continue doing this for the rest of my working life. I'm currently temping as a legal secretary, while I decide what my next step should be. I've been thinking of doing the FE1 exams and becoming a solicitor.
Am I too old to go down this road? Would there be an age bias against me if I passed the exams and tried to get a traineeship?
Has anyone got any advice, or similar experience to me? I'd love to hear some ideas on this!
