Graduate Recruitment

We have a strong team of business lawyers acting for many types of organisations, ranging from public companies to small businesses through to leading institutions in the charitable and educational fields. The wide diversity of issues encountered by the individual is reflected in the broad spectrum of service that we can offer to the Private Client. Two trainees are recruited in September each year with four seats being offered over a two year training period in various departments (Commercial, Dispute Resolution, Employment, Private Client, Family, Residential Property and Personal Injury*).

Graduate training programme

Our training principal will oversee the training programme and trainees will spend six months in each training seat, working with a training supervisor. Trainees will gain a wide range of experience and develop their professional skills laying the foundations for a successful future career in law.
