What makes Herbert Smith really stand out is the people who work here. It's the culture of the firm. Individualism thrives but there is a genuinely collegial atmosphere in our firm. The team spirit pervades all levels of the firm - trainees, associates, partners and support staff all play their part.

Creativity is truly valued because, as you'll soon discover, our clients' interests are increasingly complex, strung out across geographic borders and jurisdictions, often with no established solutions or precedents.

We train our lawyers to be flexible and imaginative in applying the law. We recognise, encourage, and actively seek to promote individuality and originality within team-based practice groups.

Our priority is to provide a friendly but professional atmosphere of excellence in which our trainees can develop into world-class lawyers.
