At Kirkland & Ellis we combine the benefits of a small trainee intake with the excitement of being part of a global firm, employing over 3,000 lawyers in 19 offices around the world.
Talent, drive and enthusiasm. That's what makes a Kirkland & Ellis lawyer.
If you are in your penultimate year of your law degree or final year of your non-law degree, or beyond, you may apply for the Training Contract.
You will have four six month seats. Three of our main practice areas are corporate, debt finance and investment funds so it is likely you will spend a seat in each of these. Your other seat(s) will be allocated from one of our other complementary practice areas.
