Are you ready to take your career to the next gear? Step into a world of opportunities as a trainee lawyer with a split role between insolvency and reconstruction as well as general corporate and commercial law at our Roskilde office. With us you get more than a job; you get a career path filled with complex challenges, helpful colleagues and exceptional opportunities to grow both professionally and personally.

Varied cases and responsibilities from day one

As a trainee lawyer with us you will be involved in varied and exciting top-level cases and will therefore travel widely in law and the industry. The position is split between our insolvency and reconstruction department and our corporate law team, giving you a broad professional exposure. On the insolvency side, cases include court proceedings, advising crisis-struck companies, bankruptcy quarantine cases, advising creditors, as well as liquidation and bankruptcy processing of companies.

In the corporate and contract law area you will work with general corporate legal advisory to our clients, including corporate law aspects, the ongoing operations of companies, as well as negotiation and drafting of commercial contracts.

You learn as you work, and you will experience that the difficulty of tasks and your direct contact with clients will steadily increase. Over time you will have independent responsibility for cases and client contact. With us you get a flexible everyday life, where your daily presence will be at our office in Roskilde.

Explore your potential with our experienced lawyers

You will become part of an ambitious law firm with a local foundation and international outlook. The insolvency team consists of knowledgeable lawyers and trainees with substantial experience in the field – including certified insolvency lawyers and fixed trustees and liquidators at the district courts.
