Three new trainees joined Debenhams Ottaway this week. Selected from over 100 applications and following a rigorous interview process, the new trainees (Robyn Adams, Laura Coad and Adam Matthews) will spend the next two years developing their legal and client care skills working closely with the lawyers in a number of our key areas, including dispute resolution/litigation, commercial property and private client (Wills, trusts, probate).
Chief Executive Paul Khan comments “It’s great that Debenhams Ottaway can continue to offer young aspiring lawyers’ excellent training which provides a good foundation to their legal career. We spend a lot of time finding the best trainee candidates who have the energy and imagination to succeed.”
