The Sheffield Legal Fair

Gordons LLP

Gordons LLP is a West Yorkshire firm with offices in Leeds and Bradford. The firm has 35 partners and 250 staff. Though the firm has a commercial emphasis we also have a significant private client department. We advise clients in all fields of commercial activity – from the individual entrepreneur and small family business to the large PLC. Our service to private clients is equally comprehensive.

The firm is organised into four departments: Company/Commercial, Commercial Property, Litigation (including commercial litigation, civil litigation, personal injury, employment law, insolvency and property litigation), and Private Client (including personal law, residential property and family law).

Graduate Opportunities

We recruit 6 trainees each year who spend a minimum of six months in at least three of the above departments. We are looking for trainees who are eager to learn, have good interpersonal skills, can relate well to clients and who welcome responsibility at an early stage. In return we offer excellent training in a supportive and friendly environment. We also contribute £5000 towards LPC course fees.
