Time well spent

The vacation scheme is a chance to experience the working environment of a successful regional commercial practice. It’s also an opportunity to show us your potential as a future trainee—many of our current and past trainees started by doing a holiday placement with us before joining the firm.

 

Holiday form

Successful applicants will spend one week at a chosen office discovering each of its different disciplines, including corporate commercial, employment, litigation and commercial property.  You will work with current trainees and qualified solicitors and learn what training might entail. We aim to get you involved in client meetings, hearings and seminars.

As with all firms, places on our work experience scheme are limited in number. We therefore ask that all candidates complete an online application form.

After having spent a very successful week on the Howes Percival Winter Vacation Scheme, I can confidently say a career in law is one I wish to pursue.

Having come from a non-law background, it has been an essential experience for me to understand in more depth what is it to be both a trainee, and qualified solicitor in such a large regional firm; not to mention being a great insight into various areas of law.
