Welcome to the Pupillage Blog Awards for ‘Other Worthy Legal Blogs’.
No doubt as you read this, you will have experienced first hand the disappointment of finding a legal blog which has not been regularly updated or maybe you have suffered the frustration of the lack of information provided or accompanying defunct legal links.
After many days, months and hours of visiting and reading legal blogs across the Internet, I wanted to highlight and award the very best of those which would aid or support any aspiring lawyer with either the key tools, practical knowledge or the provision of good informative information which provides an insight into the profession itself.
Each of the legal blogs have been reviewed and given a star rating, likewise each ‘Award Winning Legal Blog’ can be directly accessed below. This page will be updated regularly so you will benefit from regular visits.
Enjoy. JT
Awards for January 2010
The Magistrate’s Blog which is updated regularly surrounds the daily musings and snippets from an English Magistrate. This blog is extremely well written and is guaranteed to raise a smile or two, whilst the commentary is well executed within the descriptive court observations. For any aspiring would be criminal barrister, this blog is certainly one to visit regularly as it provides a real insight into the day to day events that surround the magistrates’ courts’ system.
Turning to the practical features of The Magistrate’s Blog:
The overall design of the blog is very appealing, easy on the eye and uncluttered. The links for other legal blogs and resources are kept up-to-date.

Awards for February 2010
When I first started scouring the Internet looking for law blogs that could provide a clear critique into the practical day to day life of the way the legal profession operates, ‘Pupillage and How to Get It’ was always the first and still is the most reliable place to start. Delivering a unique style of critical analysis and legal opinion, the author Simon Myerson demonstrates a tireless commitment towards his readers to not only engage upon all levels, but also to regularly investigate a wide range of issues which reflect the ongoing observations from within the profession. In short, this blog should be the first place of call for any lawyer engaging within a professional career at the Bar.
Turning to the practical features of Pupillage and How to Get It:
The simple practical design of the blog works well, easy on the eye and uncluttered. The written commentary and opinions of each blog are often coupled with appropriate and compelling humorous cartoons which engage the site to its readers. Posts which are placed by the readers are regularly administrated with supportive commentary.
