The firm

Boodle Hatfield has been providing practical advice to businesses and individuals for 300 years. Our clients come from a wide range of sectors, both in the UK and internationally, and include some of the most well-established owner-managed businesses and property companies as well as fast-growing entrepreneurial enterprises and ultra-high net worth families. Our chief priority is helping our clients achieve their commercial objectives, whatever form their business takes.

Our approach is to become the long-term trusted adviser to leading wealth creators and owners as well as their commercial and investment enterprises. Having a holistic view of our clients' structures and affairs means we can leverage this to provide the most appropriate and commercial advice to them. This approach has enabled us, throughout our 300-year history, to help our clients successfully navigate the continually changing and sometimes challenging markets in which they operate.

With a history like ours, we know we are built to last. But this isn’t the time to rest on our laurels but instead a chance to reflect and build on our heritage. We are merely today’s custodians of the Boodle Hatfield name, and we want to create a legacy that our successors will be just as proud of.

To commemorate our 300 year anniversary, last year we rolled out an extensive programme of activities, each of which sowed the seeds for the future success of others – our local neighbourhoods, the wider legal profession, and of course our valued clients and our own team.

Summary of role

Boodle Hatfield’s Open Day offers a unique and exciting opportunity for first year law students and penultimate year non law students to gain valuable insights into our leading Private Wealth law firm. At Boodle Hatfield, we know how important it is to choose the right firm for you when beginning your law career, therefore, we want to ensure students have an opportunity to see, first-hand, what life at Boodle Hatfield would be a like as a graduate.  During our open day, participants will learn about our culture, the type of work we do and the type of clients we have.

The open day will be an all-day event and will take place at our office in Blackfriars, London on Wednesday 10 April 2024.

This event promises an enriching experience for individuals eager to discover more about working in a top ranked, award winning law firm. The day will consist of talks from our Graduate Recruiter and Training Principal, introductory talks from each fee earning departments, opportunities to take part in case studies and develop skills and understanding of the other elements that make a successful business person. You will also receive plenty of opportunities to network with Partners and Staff, including current trainees, throughout the day.
