- Work Experience
Chafes recognise the need for people considering a career in law to undertake work experience. We do not provide placements unless you are studying for A levels or higher level qualifications. Currently all our work experience placements are committed.
- Training Contracts
In order to ensure that we offer good quality experience with future prospects we do not have a programme of training contracts. We prefer to identify specific training opportunities and then recruit a trainee solicitor. Currently we have no such opportunities, any future vacancies will be advertised on this website.
