Recruitment
We are very much a ‘peoples firm’, with our culture being that we provide you with all the tools and support necessary to help you achieve your full potential. This ethos is applied to all our people whether you are applying to join our admin team or as a paralegal.
Professional Support Roles
Colman Coyle realise that without a fully resourced non-legal team, the function of the firm will come to a literal stand still. With the firm continually growing, we are constantly on the look out for individuals to fill any professional support vacancies who will become part of the reason why we keep going from strength to strength.
Paralegals
The firm has a history of employing ambitious paralegals who want to become part of a firm which offers a first class service to its clients. You will also want a long-term future with us.
Clients demand more than just pure legal advice, they require a genuine understanding of their objectives. As such it is our job to provide them with practical solution - success in providing this depends on the quality of our team. We are always on the look out for paralegals who
- have achieved a high standard of education
- show a willingness to take responsibility
- respond and adapt to challenges
- seek fulfilment and recognition in their chosen profession.
If our paralegals show that they are all of the above and they have completed their LPC they may be considered for a training contract.
Due to the size of Colman Coyle our trainees become part of the team from day one. All of our trainees are closely supervised by a partner in their particular seat. Our strategy is to shape trainees into commercially astute lawyers; as such you will be drafting agreements and attending meetings with clients and counsel straight away. All this will be done under the guidance and support of your supervising partner.
Practical Training
You will use your initiative to contribute your ideas and insights. At Colman Coyle you really do receive “on the job training”, which means you will constantly be learning and adding to your skill set.
Formal Training
This includes in-house seminars, courses and both formal and informal reviews. As a trainee we will also pay your PSC fees

- a 2.1 degree or higher from a leading university
