Jones Day

Jones Day is among the world’s largest law firms (2,500 lawyers in 35 offices with an established City of London practice).

Its 200 London lawyers (including 50 partners and 35 trainees) offer the breadth of legal services expected of a City firm servicing international clients: yet the intimate office atmosphere is of a medium-sized City firm.

We operate a different training system to most City firms. Understanding how it works and why we don’t follow the crowd is key to understanding whether it’s right for you. Our placement schemes, operating like mini-training contracts, will show you how we work in practice and give you a taste of what it's like to be a trainee at Jones Day.
