Wedlake Bell is a contemporary London law firm which operates four key practice groups: private client, business services, real estate and dispute resolution, and also has specialisms in trademarks and employment litigation.
Wedlake Bell’s approach is to recruit a small number of trainees each year. Our small, close knit intakes are able to receive high-quality training and experience high levels of client contact right from the start of their training. We are currently recruiting 8 trainees per year.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nWe provide exceptional training, and provide you with a supportive environment where you can reach your potential.
As a full-service law firm, you have the opportunity to rotate through a variety of different practice areas. We are big enough that you will experience market-leading legal matters, and small enough that you will be noticed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nIn addition to this, Wedlake Bell is consistently highly-regarded as offering a good work-life balance and a strong work culture. We offer regular staff socials for you to get to know everyone at the firm, including our annual ski trip and walking trip.
