Lex 100 is the Student’s Guide to the UK’s premier law firms. Each year trainees are asked to provide anonymous feedback on their training contract and to rate their experiences according to several different criteria. The survey results provide potential candidates with a valuable inside look at different firms, allowing them to make a more informed decision as to which employer may be the right match for them.
We are incredibly proud that we are a Lex 100 Winner for 2018/19 in the following categories: job satisfaction, quality of work and client contact. Hodge Jones & Allen Solicitors was also a triple Lex 100 Winner in 2016/2017 edition.
