Hi Marcus,

Why have the firm chosen not to recruit any London-based trainees in this cycle?

Thanks!

Hi Marcus,

Why have the firm chosen not to recruit any London-based trainees in this cycle?

Thanks!

During the last application cycle we saw lots of great candidates both internally and externally and have therefore filled our London vacancies for 2027. We would encourage anyone interested in TLT to explore one of our other offices Bristol (HQ), Birmingham, Manchester, Scotland (Glasgow and Edinburgh), and Belfast where we are currently recruiting Trainees.

Hi Marcus,

Please can you advise if TLT are accepting candidates who have recently completed the LPC without requiring them to also take the SQE as well?

Many thanks.

Does TLT recruit on a rolling basis?

Afternoon,

Yes, we accept candidates who have completed the LPC! At present, those who have completed the LPC are able to undertake the PSC in order to satisfy that part of the route to qualification.

Thank you!

Hi Kavina,

We do not recruit on a rolling basis. All applicants have until the closing date indicated on the application to be equally considered.

Hi, thank you all for your time.
so i don't know if it is the right place for this question. but I don't know what else to do!
I got my undergrad (law) and first master's degree (law) in my home country (Iran), my law internship and arbitration reserach fellowship took place there as well. I do have a master's degree from LSE. This is my second year applying and I have had no luck. I just want to know if someone with my background has any chance for a T.C or not. I just want to know if should spend so much time on these applications, dealing with those rejections or if I should just give up and find something else to do. I would really appreacite it if you could give me an honest answer.

Hi Marcus,

I see that TLT has a South West presence along with an organic style of growth rather than an aggressive merging and opening offices growth strategy. What do you think is the main advantage of this and how is the firm positioned to compete with larger firms with more office coverage?

Hi Marcus,

A common question at the interview stage involves discussing what is affecting the legal industry right now. How would you advise an applicant to approach and structure their response?
