Future joiners

From the moment you accept a training contract with us, you become part of the firm. As a “future joiner” we involve you as much as possible.

There is a dedicated future joiners section of our website, where you can keep in touch with fellow future joiners, for whom we hold regular get-togethers.

You will also be paired with a mentor, providing advice via email or telephone. We will send you regular e-bulletins to keep you up to date with firm news.

There are also the following benefits:

  • a maintenance grant (£7,000 p.a. for the Legal Practice Course and £6,000 p.a. for the Common Professional Examination/Graduate Diploma in Law in London and Oxford; £5,000 p.a. outside London)
  • course fees for the Common Professional Examination/Graduate Diploma in Law and Legal Practice Course
  • Solicitors Regulation Authority student membership
  • discretionary grants for additional courses which could add value to the firm
  • advice and guidance on relocating to London
