We currently recruit 5 trainees each year.

Our trainees undertake training in at least 4 of the firm's 6 core practice areas, which are:

Commercial
Corporate
Dispute Resolution
Employment
Financial Services; and
Real Estate

Our Trainees may sit with either a Partner, Associate or Assistant.

The firm has an open, friendly and relaxed atmosphere in which trainees are given an opportunity to become involved in high quality work.

As the training is extremely hands-on, individuals with initiative, who are able to take on responsibility, thrive. Candidates must demonstrate a high degree of commercial acumen and awareness.

The training is diverse and broad-ranging as we strive to enable the trainees to experience as many disciplines within the principal practice areas as possible. Undertaking such a broad-based training contract, we believe, enables a trainee to make an informed decision as to which practice area he or she wants to qualify into.

We have aimed to provide a well-rounded training contract, which builds on knowledge academically, introduces new disciplines and prepares trainees for life as a commercial lawyer.

Academic Requirement

A minimum of 320 UCAS points are required at A-Level (for instance ABB) as well as a predicted (or achieved) 2:1. Rosenblatt recruits both law and non-law graduates.

Remuneration and Benefits

Membership of flexible benefits scheme presently equivalent to a further 3% of salary
Interest-free season ticket loan
Fees for the LPC and Living Allowance of £6,000 in London or £5,000 elsewhere. If you have completed the LPC prior to accepting a training contract with us then you will be eligible for a reimbursement of your fees (15%-75%) depending on when the course was completed.
