That is nothing to do with being a barrister. It’s an apprenticeship in a law firm. It’s not a progressional solicitor or barrister. So I’m not sure his job/apprentIceship is subject to any checks. Or your views.

Professional solicitor ..

You can become a solicitor via an apprenticeship route.

Yrs. Big it sounds like it’s way down the road. Not going to happen soon,

Sorry, that’s garbled. Someone with an unspecified apprenticeship in a “motor law specialist” isn’t necessarily on their way to being a solicitor. Might be a legal assistant or legal executive. The first post Telmex about going to the Bar. He’s definitely not doing that.
