Trainee Solicitors
We normally we recruit trainee solicitors twice a year, in September and March. Trainees are given the opportunity to work in several of our legal departments, enabling them to gain valuable hands–on experience and client contact.
We aim to give our trainees the necessary opportunity, training and support to ensure that each has a set of comprehensive legal skills combined with a professional approach to client care.
Trainee Legal Executives
The role of Legal Executive forms an important part in our firm and the service that we give to our clients. We have trainee and fully qualified Legal Executives in most areas of our firm and all of them have successfully trained with us. Occasionally trainee posts have been filled by secretaries wishing to develop their career. We give full support throughout the training for study leave and finance for the course.
