Training Contract 2029

Bristows is a unique place to work, quite unlike most law firms.

The firm’s fee-earners are not given billing targets, which has a significant impact on the atmosphere of the firm, fostering a supportive, human environment where the focus is on quality rather than quantity.

The firm is genuinely encouraging and supportive of its lawyers and support staff. 

Scheme date:

September 2029

During the two-year training contract, trainees undertake seats within our core departments and have the opportunity to go on secondment to one of our key clients. All trainees gain experience in Intellectual Property law, including a guaranteed 6-month seat in IP Litigation.

Applications are reviewed by the early careers team before inviting candidates to the next stage. We conduct face-to-face interviews. The whole recruitment process usually lasts between January-March.
