Sacker & Partners LLP (Sackers), the UK's leading specialist law firm for pensions and retirement savings, has welcomed Charlotte Adams and Fraser Sutton as Graduate Solicitor Apprentices.
The Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeship Programme provides an alternative and accessible route into the legal profession, combining on-the-job training with guided, independent study and skills coaching delivered by the University of Law. Sackers' apprentices will qualify as solicitors through the Solicitors Qualifying Exams after two and a half years.
David Saunders, senior partner, said: “Our Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeship Programme is a fundamental part of our commitment to widening access to the legal profession and enabling aspiring lawyers to earn while they learn.
“The success of our first cohort, which completed last year, has reinforced the value of this route into the profession. Both graduates were offered permanent positions and remain with us as associates. We are very pleased to welcome Charlotte and Fraser, and we look forward to supporting them as they begin their own journeys with the firm.”
