To be considered for one of Cooley’s four training places per year, you first must participate in our London spring or summer programmes, which will give you insight into the breadth of work we do – and the exciting range of clients we are proud to serve and partner with on transformative deals, complex IP and regulatory matters, and high-stakes litigation. There will also be many opportunities to experience the distinctive, welcoming and collaborative spirit of our firm.
During the two-week spring or summer programmes (each of which accepts approximately six people per year, and per programme), you will contribute to meaningful work, engage in professional development sessions, and connect with Cooley colleagues through work assignments and socially. A programme mentor, a trainee buddy and the legal talent team will help you make the most of the opportunities available to you, as well as support your integration throughout the programmes.
Our programmes have earned recognition since 2022 from The Legal 500’s Future Lawyers trainee solicitor survey for the quality of experience they offer.
