Q3 What kind of training and development opportunities does the company provide for new graduates?
The company offers regular seminars across a range of practice areas, both run internally by fee earners and delivered by external presenters; these are open to all trainees and we are encouraged to come to as many as possible. In particular, trainees are encouraged to attend department specific tax talks from the company’s tax expert, and the disputes team runs a wide-ranging series of lunchtime ‘know-how’ talks. Trainees are also encouraged to get involved in research and preparing articles for the company’s website on particular practice areas.

Q4 What opportunities are there for trainees to work on high-profile cases or with major clients early in their careers?
Trainees are given the chance to work on high-profile matters from the off, working for big-name companies and high net worth individuals, as well as fascinating start-up clients. The exposure to headline-making work is brilliant and trainees contribute in a meaningful way to the projects.

Trainees have just as much opportunity to work on high-profile cases as anyone and there is often direct client contact involved. Partners are very receptive to requests for being staffed on particular matters – taking ownership of your career is actually something they value very highly.
