Conyers has presented four Bermudian students with a total of $60,000 in legal education awards.

Ava Gibson was presented with the Conyers Legal Scholarship, which is valued at $30,000.

Ms Gibson will be starting her legal education at University College, London, in the autumn.

Chrysda Smith received a $20,000 Legal Education Award.

She completed her postgraduate diploma in law at the University of Law in Manchester, and will be going on to complete her solicitors qualifying examination with a masters of law at the same university.

Luc Dutranoit and Macy Aicardi each received a $5,000 Legal Education Award.

Mr Dutranoit is attending law school at the University of Sydney in Australia to earn his Juris Doctor degree in 2025.

Ms Aicardi will be attending the University of Bristol this year to earn her masters in law through their two-year programme.

“Congratulations to this year’s Legal Education Award recipients. Conyers is proud to support young Bermudians as they embark on building a career in law,” said Sophia Greaves, director and Legal Education Award chairwoman. “We wish our talented awardees every success in the future.”

Conyers has an extensive student programme, offering awards to multiple students annually in the form of scholarships and bursaries.

The firm said it has donated more than $1.5 million to legal educations in the past five years.

In addition to the Legal Education Awards, Conyers offers an array of opportunities to further student learning and development.

Students and graduates are provided with work-placement opportunities through the summer law and pupillage programmes, which are designed to support the personal and professional development of law students.

The firm said it designed an experience that offered practical training, where participants worked on real client projects, were mentored by lawyers and included in everyday life at the firm.

More recently, it introduced the Smart Start programme, which provides a combination of work experience and mentoring to high school students who might not otherwise have the opportunity to access a legal career.

Other initiatives include networking and open house events, where students can explore all the possibilities of a path in law.
