KWM trainees to find futures at other firms

As King & Wood Mallesons (KWM) continues merger discussions with potential suitors this week, the firm’s partners may be headed to various firms if KWM does not solidify a merger deal. In this scenario, trainees would face an uncertain future. Potential options could include a special dispensation in which trainees could qualify in February without their final weeks at KWM, or an option to transfer trainees to other firms to complete training. A few firms have reportedly reached out to KWM regarding trainee transfer opportunities.
