““I have recently qualified as a solicitor, having completed my training contract at Judge & Priestley. During my training contract, I was given a significant level of responsibility from the start. The support I received from the teams I was a part of during my training greatly assisted my professional development. As a trainee, I had the opportunity to manage my own cases and get involved in a wide-variety of challenging work, including attending court with our clients and counsel. The level of training I received during my training helped me to build the confidence I need to continue developing my career as a solicitor and beyond at Judge & Priestley.“”Celine Jagmohan, Solicitor
