Training Contract
As a leading national property firm, much of the training contract will have a property bias.
It is Attwells’ experience that the best way to gain the skills of a Solicitor is to have responsibility from an early stage, supported at all times by a Supervisor.
You can expect responsibility from an early stage and the opportunity to work alongside different individuals, including Partners.
Your training contract will cover legal knowledge, legal skills, commercial and financial awareness, professional skills, and more.
During your two years as a trainee solicitor, you will spend time in different practice areas. To ensure you get the most out of your training contract, the Training Principal will work with you to try and design a training contract that suits your individual preferences.
Your Training contract may involve you moving between our offices, dependent upon which seats are undertaken.
