Early Careers in the United Kingdom

Knowing why you want to enter a career in law is important; what is just as important is starting your career at the right firm.

Perspectives

I was genuinely surprised by how much time people made for me, despite the demands of their own schedules. Senior team members, including partners, consistently checked in, involved me in meetings and ensured I was getting the most out of the Vacation Scheme. That level of support was not something I had expected.

Goodwin’s expertise at the intersection of capital and innovation provides a unique opportunity to work with both high growth companies and the institutions that invest in them.

From the first interview I had, everybody at the firm I spoke to was enthusiastic and really passionate about the work Goodwin does. Once I got to the Vacation Scheme, this translated to a dynamic feel. There was a real buzz and energy and everybody was excited about the trajectory of the firm.
Claudia Baldelli
Trainee Solicitor
I was particularly interested in the opportunities of experiencing a commercially focused training contract working with a broad range of clients across the technology, life sciences, financial services and real estate industries. Furthermore, being part of a small trainee intake, with the chance for early responsibility and client contact, appealed to me.
