There is no such things as a ‘typical’ trainee solicitor at Dentons and that’s the way we like it. Our expertise within the Firm is as diverse as the needs of our global clients. What we have in common is the ability to contribute to our growing success.

For our Middle East Training Contract we do require candidates to be fluent in written and verbal Arabic.

We are also keen to hear from nationals of Gulf Cooperation Council countries interested in training to become England and Wales qualified, although accept applications from candidates of any nationality.

We generally look for a strong performance at A-Level, but consider every application we receive in context and holistically. If you feel you can submit a strong application even if you do not meet these grades we encourage you to apply.

We also encourage you to include mitigating circumstances if relevant. We have also implemented the Rare Recruitment Contextual Recruitment System, to give us additional context to every candidate’s application.

We are hiring trainees to start with us in August 2023, August 2024 and August 2025.
