The firm provide a comprehensive legal service to a wide range of businesses and private individuals. The client base includes multinationals, public and private companies, partnerships, public sector organisations and private clients.

Corporate support will be required on transactional matters.

    The successful candidate will actively assist in developing the practice by working mainly on their own files, and with others on larger transactions. In accordance with the general practice of the firm, the candidate will have significant responsibility and client contact, and will enjoy the support and encouragement of other members of the Team at all levels.
