In addition, these students are also offered vacation work and an opportunity to do their Candidate Attorney program through DM5.

DM5 provides opportunities for law students to do internship work during their study holidays. Interns are given real life experience in legal work and carry out various duties enabling them to gain much needed experience within the legal environment. Our interns are mentored and guided closely by our expert legal team equipping our young legal minds with the requisite knowledge and skill set to be prodigious attorneys of the future.

True to DM5's philosophy of supporting educational initiatives and programs, DM5 provides pro bono legal services on a need to basis for the Cida City Campus located in Johannesburg. One of our directors Mrs. Neo Moshimane sits on the board of trustees of Cida City Campus.

DM5 invites pupils from high school who have an interest in the legal fraternity to our offices so they can get a feel of how it is to work in a law firm. The pupils are given 1st hand experience and advise on how the legal environment operates. In addition, the pupils are provided with in depth guidance on how to become legal professionals and are provided information on the various institutions that provide legal education opportunities.

DM5 donates various material needed by school children to ensure a sound educational experience for needy and deserving children. As a result, DM5 has donated school bags to schools in the Eastern Cape and this program shall be extended in the future to reach more needy schools and pupils around the country.
