Family Law Essay Competition:
Win a prize of £2,000

Submissions must be the original work of the entrant and must not infringe on the rights of any other party. We may use various means to identify plagiarism, contract cheating and other forms of fraud. Our determinations in all such matters are final.

Submissions must not contain defamatory, obscene, offensive, or any other unsuitable material.

Vardags retains the right to publish or reproduce at any time all or part of any work submitted on the Vardags website and elsewhere. Vardags reserve the right to delete or omit from any published article anything that in their absolute discretion should not be published on editorial or legal grounds.

Submissions must be made by our online entry system - this competition therefore requires access to the internet.

The decision of our judging panel will be final. Please note that entries will not be returned and entrants may therefore wish to keep their own copy of the submitted essay. Vardags does not enter into correspondence about any aspect of the competition or the results thereof. Feedback on the essays submitted is not provided.

Candidates fast-tracked to interviews for Vardags’ graduate trainee recruitment will be for our intakes from 2025 onward.

The organizers of the competition will collect data in line with the law and our privacy policy (accessible here: Vardags | Privacy Policy) for the purposes of the Competition, in the ways described in these terms and conditions. The information collected will be used to contact the winners, and to administer the competition and (in the case of successful entrants) to publicise and promote this competition and future such competitions and for any marketing or other purposes you may indicate your consent to. When publishing essays on the Vardags website, Vardags will publish the name and institution of the author alongside this.
