Spring Vacation Scheme

The Vacation Scheme gives you the chance to experience two of our key practice areas. Training is provided throughout to familiarise you with some of our typical transactions and to help you develop key skills. We place great emphasis on involving you in “live” work.

You’ll be an integral part of the team, attending client and department meetings, as well as court hearings. Expect plenty of social events and networking opportunities too. These will help you find out more about us by meeting a range of Partners, Associates and Trainees.
