After two years you will be ready to qualify into one of our practice areas. It is important to keep an open mind as you progress through your seats, as many of our lawyers qualify into areas that are different to their initial expectations.
Your ambitions and interests will evolve as your experience, training and career develops. As you approach the end of your training, you'll be invited to specify your preferred practice area and the other areas that interest you. These preferences will be considered by the various practice areas. Should you be unsuccessful in securing your first choice, our graduate development team will liaise with you regarding other qualification options. Our aim is to help our people find the best possible fit for them and to retain as many of our trainees as possible.
For some, particularly if you have relevant language skills, there may be the opportunity to join one of our overseas offices on qualification.
