Partner Simon Dinning, who leads the training scheme, said: “We are delighted to celebrate Jamie, Matthew and Charlotte’s success and welcome them to their new roles as associates.

“Qualifying as a Solicitor is a landmark in anyone’s legal career and our investment in supporting trainees through a dedicated development programme equivalent to those run by City firms is something that we take significant pride in.”
