Henderson Chambers boosts pupillage award by 40% as it unveils new Caribbean secondment

Commercial and common law specialist Henderson Chambers has increased its pupillage award to £70,000, Legal Cheek can reveal.

Up from £50,000, the major money move — which sees the Temple-based set become the joint second-highest pupillage payer in the country — equates to an increase of £20,000 or 40%. According to Legal Cheek’s 2017-18 Chambers Most List, Henderson takes on two pupils each year and now joins commercially-geared duo 2 Temple Gardens and 4 Pump Court in dishing out the impressive £70,000 figure.

The large award uplift comes as Henderson reveals a new international secondment, a training tool normally reserved for trainees at large corporate law firms. The set has confirmed its pupils will have an opportunity to hone their barrister skills in the sun soaked British Overseas Territory of the Turks and Caicos Islands.

“We have decided to refresh our pupillage offering, with an increase in our award and a new secondment to the Caribbean,” a spokesperson for Henderson told Legal Cheek. He continued:
