If you are looking to apply for a role as a Solicitor then you will be a qualified Solicitor able to advise clients on areas of law. Although solicitors can become specialists, in particular, areas, it is usually the role of a Legal Executive at the same level as a solicitor who specialises leaving solicitors free to do a more generalist law role.
You could be working in a practice with clients as individuals or working with businesses and dealing with companies and providing advice on a mass basis. Strong spoken and written communication skills are essential in order to be a good Solicitor.
Trainee solicitors can earn around £21,590 a year. Qualified solicitors can earn between £25,000 and £70,000 a year.
