Additional financial support
We recognise that the cost of qualifying as a Solicitor can prevent some people from entering the legal profession. As a firm, we want to encourage as many applicants from as diverse a range of backgrounds as possible. That’s why we’ve introduced two new grants to provide additional financial support to those who have accepted a Training Contract offer from us and are experiencing financial difficulty.
