Trainees set their sights on success

Law firm Howes Percival has welcomed eight new trainee solicitors to the firm and has appointed its first solicitor apprentice. It has also appointed four new solicitors who have completed their training contracts.

Pictured are Nichola Constantinides and Iona Palmer, who have begun their training at the firm’s office in Northampton. During their two-year training contract, they will complete four six-month seats, each in a different department.

Nichola centre has begun in the insolvency and corporate recovery department while Iona right is splitting her training between the commercial property and corporate, commercial and banking teams. Also pictured is Eliza Kay, whose first training stint is with the corporate, commercial and banking team in Milton Keynes. The new intake join six current trainees who have completed the first year of their training contract.

Partner and training principal Simon Murphy said: “Preparing the next generation of lawyers is essential to the future of our business. We like our trainees to get stuck in, work as part of the team and get involved in quality work, which gives them the best possible start to their legal career.”

Charis Skipper has joined Howes Percival as its first solicitor apprentice. “We hope that this could become a route into the practice for more people in future,” said Mr Murphy.
