Fast paced, fast growing and forward thinking, TLT is the law firm that helps clients stay one step ahead, and we do the same for our people.

We work with high profile clients in innovative sectors. With local, national and international reach, we have over 1,800 people in offices across the UK and a network of partner firms across Europe, India and the US. TLT was named Law Firm of the Year at the Legal Business Awards 2023. This marks the third year in a row the firm has taken away this accolade in industry awards - having previously been named Law Firm of the Year at The Lawyer Awards in 2021 and the British Legal Awards in 2022. 

Our training programme puts you at the heart of the action, you’ll work on live projects and forge a career that rewards you.  This is your opportunity to push boundaries, question convention, and solve complex problems. And as you build your skills, you can decide where your career takes you. You’ll be part of an open and collaborative team where you can approach anyone for a conversation and get involved in causes that you care about.

Our 6 year Legal Solicitor Apprenticeship gives you the opportunity to grow your legal knowledge and business development experience whilst studying for your law degree. It puts you right at the heart of the action and is all about giving you real work, creating real results and getting recognition for your achievements.

We work with clients from the Future Energy, Digital, Financial Services, Leisure, Food & Drink, Public Sector, Real Estate and Retail & Consumer Goods sectors.

Your supervisor will work with you to boost your technical legal knowledge and sharpen your commercial instincts. Alongside your university studies, you will have the opportunity to attend development workshops which will help you develop the right mindset for success as well as the focus and resilience you need for a career in law.

We’re successful because we challenge convention and don’t let tradition stand in our way. We’re proud to do things differently. Individual thinking matters to us. We trust you to deliver great work for great clients, whatever your role. We look for candidates that have a commercially-agile mindset and are academically bright.

The six year Solicitor Apprenticeship will allow you to obtain a degree in law whilst working alongside legal professionals. During the first two years, you will complete the Level 3 Paralegal Apprenticeship before progressing onto Year 3 of the Solicitor Apprenticeship, thus allowing you to obtain a Certificate of Higher Education (Law and Legal Practice) whilst covering the same academic materials. During your final two years of the programme, you will join the Trainee Solicitor cohort and during this time undertake your SQE examinations.

Our minimum requirements are:

120 UCAS points (BBB A-level or equivalent)
