Work Placements for University Students

We welcome speculative CVs from law undergraduates, graduates, GDL and LPC students, or equivalent. If a position is not immediately available, these CVs are kept in case a suitable role does arise in the future.

We have a history of employing law students in administrative roles, who work part-time whilst continuing their legal studies. These students frequently go on to pursue legal careers and training with us, or with other reputable legal businesses. Some of our current trainees, solicitors, and even partners, started with us in this way. We are proud to nurture this ‘home-grown’ talent and see our employees develop their careers.

Our ideal candidate is a keen and ambitious student with a strong academic record. They will be interested in developing their legal careers and working with a highly regarded and well-established team of lawyers and support staff. They will show a passion for the law, particularly the areas of law that we practise, and a willingness to engage with and support the wider community.

Please send speculative CVs and cover letters to our Office Manager.

Please ensure your CV includes:

• Details of academic qualifications including GCSEs, A Levels or equivalent;
• Your degree classification, LPC results or equivalent/SQE preference, including modules and grades achieved;
• If your degree classification is pending, your predicted degree classification as well as evidence of previous results and recent grades;
• If your LPC result is pending, your predicted grade as well as any exam results already received throughout the course.
• Details of any relevant legal work experience.
