The firm
Taylor Wessing offers a full service to its clients providing a powerful source of legal support for commercial organisations doing business in Europe and the emerging markets in Asia and the Middle East. Our clients include large and medium size, private and public companies, financial institutions, professional service firms, public sector bodies and wealthy individuals. We offer industry-focused advice by grouping together lawyers from different legal areas with in-depth sector experience. Our core industries include banking, construction, engineering, fashion, finance, healthcare, infrastructure, leisure, life sciences, media and entertainment, information technology and telecommunications and projects.

Taylor Wessing is based primarily in the three largest economies in Europe, and has offices in other countries, including China where our Shanghai office serves a thriving Chinese market and our Beijing office, which opens in September 2008, as well as Dubai, which opened at the start of 2008.

Training contract programme
As part of your training contract programme, you will spend six months in four different practice groups, including a contentious seat and another in our corporate area. There are also secondment opportunities to our other offices or one of our clients. All our trainees work closely with a number of partners and associates in the practice groups so you will be directly involved in high quality work from the outset. Throughout your training contract you will have ongoing discussions about your interests and how they fit in with the growth and needs of the firm. There is support every step of the way, with regular feedback and appraisals in the middle and at the end of each seat.
