In reference to the firm’s regional presence with a large spread of offices offering recruits the opportunity to work on major corporate deals whilst maintaining a good work/life balance, The Lex100 noted: “If the firm were a fictional character it would be Ant Man – can pack a punch if needed”

It says trainees lauded the culture of the firm and their commitment to wellbeing initiatives such as lunchtime yoga classes and supportive management.

Training at the firm was also highly rated, particularly the secondments on offer alongside opportunities to take part in a wide range of CSR activities.

Liz Bryne, Head of L&D at Blake Morgan, said: “The Lex100 is one of the most respected guides for graduates so we are pleased to see that we have again been recognised as an employer of choice.

“Our people are our greatest asset and we want them to be the best that they can possibly be. So, we work hard to create a working environment where than can happenand to provide the support and development opportunities that trainees need to reach their full career potential.”
