Ricardo Silva – Testimonial

I already knew which path to follow. I enrolled at the Portuguese Bar Association. At the moment I am a Trainee Lawyer, in the second phase of the Bar traineeship, which aims to make interventions in court covering at least two distinct areas. In my opinion, our beginning is complicated, very hard, but it can easily stop being so. The day we find a Patron with whom we can identify, who supports us in every minute of the internship and who essentially provides us with a calm and healthy environment where we can grow. I carry with me every class at UPT and I sincerely recognise today the demand that so often made me sweat and demanded more from me. Looking back, I unequivocally conclude that I came out well prepared for the job market. I want to leave my sincere thanks to each professor with whom I had the opportunity to learn at Portucalense University and to my patron Dr. Rui Dias Duarte, for having pushed me to enter a labour market so competitive and demanding, in a calm and sustained way.
