Common questions

Do boutique law firms offer traineeships?

Some do, usually one or two at a time and often recruited directly rather than through a formal scheme. Others hire only qualified solicitors. Either way the approach is the same: research the firm, find the right partner, write to them.

What work do boutique corporate firms actually do?

Business sales, shareholder arrangements, corporate finance and commercial contracts, under Scots law. The deals are smaller than big-firm mandates but the drafting is the same craft, with far more client contact per lawyer.

How is this different from legal directories like Chambers?
