Training Contracts

When it comes to career development, finding the right training contract can make all the difference. Ours is designed to deliver the perfect balance between responsibility, client exposure and support.

Each year, we recruit 17-20 trainees who undertake four six-month seats spread across our key practice groups. There are three compulsory seat for all trainees, Real Estate, Litigation and a transactional seat in either Corporate & Corporate Tax or Finance.  After your first seat, the remaining three are chosen in conjunction with you.  Each trainee is allocated a supervising partner and in most cases you will be sharing an office with them for six months.  We do not encourage you to specialise too early. We need you to be excellent all-round lawyers – the clients like it better that way.

You will receive feedback throughout your training contract, including formal appraisal meetings every three months where we will discuss your progress and expectations for the rest of your seat, training contract and career with us.
