BehindtheScenes
what our people say
“I genuinely feel I am given a lot of responsibility and very interesting work. The support when training is excellent, as there is always someone you feel you can ask for help without there being any judgment. The teams are welcoming towards their trainees and truly appreciate the work you do. Your contributions to the team’s work doesn’t go unnoticed and your development is very much focused upon, when people consider the work they delegate to you. Everyone wants you to succeed!”
Sophie Hudson Trainee Solicitor
“We believe our people are integral to the future success of the firm, and we take the investment into their skills and development incredibly seriously. Our flagship apprenticeship programme has been a game-changer for the industry and we are delighted to launch our new apprenticeship programmes which will truly help to shape the legal professional of the future. We hope our new Solicitor Degree Apprenticeship will appeal to those who are looking to gain a law degree alongside substantial employment experience, as an alternate pathway to a career in law whilst earning competitive salary.”
