Aberdeen-based law firm, Paull & Williamsons is working with Robert Gordon College on a new mentoring scheme.
A number of prospective law students have been teamed up with trainee lawyers from the firm, which provides legal services to oil and gas companies.
The students will find out more about the type of work they can expect when entering a career in law, as well as looking at how various types of legislation are put into practice in the context of the energy industry.
The mentoring programme started with S6 pupils, aged 16-17, being invited to attend a question and answer session with their mentors.
