Our two-year Paralegal Apprenticeship (Level 4) programme is designed to provide you with an introduction to a legal career and enables you to earn while you learn from market leaders in the field. During your apprenticeship, you'll begin to study your Law degree (LLB). After successfully completing the Paralegal Apprenticeship, you'll have the opportunity to advance to the Solicitor Apprenticeship.

Here, you'll continue your law degree and work towards the Solicitor's Qualifying Exam over four and a half years. Upon completion, you'll be able to qualify as an Associate. Apprentices work hard for our business, and you will be rewarded with exposure to a wealth of development opportunities that ensure you are best prepared to provide solutions for our clients, as well as achieve your personal professional goals.
