Our clients range from first time willmakers, young families, business owners and family owned enterprises through to the elderly.
We won’t expect you to win work on the first day but we are looking for someone with an interest in building their personal network and contributing to our marketing efforts which may include writing legal alerts, attending events, networking and presenting seminars.
