Each summer we survey leading law firms about their trainee solicitor starting salaries. See our 2024 results below... just make sure you think about the whole package (size of firm, type of clients, areas of practice, quality of training) before applying.

Do law firms really pay for the SQE and the other routes to qualify as a solicitor? Yes, many do. We list the top firms offering sponsorship for your postgraduate law studies from 2024 onwards and also point to other sources of funding, including scholarships and loans.
