Our Trainee Solicitor Programme offers an excellent opportunity for ambitious graduates to gain practical experience, professional qualifications, and the foundation for a successful career in law.

- Personal Injury
- Healthcare
- Employment
- Corporate & Commercial
- Property
- Wills and Probate
- Construction Litigation
- Licensing
You will work closely with experienced solicitors and partners, contributing to live client matters and developing your technical, and client-handling skills. Our trainees are given meaningful responsibility early on, supported every step of the way through mentorship, regular feedback, and tailored professional development.
At O’Reilly Stewart, we pride ourselves on offering a friendly, collaborative, and forward-thinking working environment where your potential can thrive.
