CMS Cameron McKenna is a founding member of CMS, the organisation of independent European law and tax firms of choice based in Europe. We pride ourselves on being a truly client focused law firm, tailoring our services to the unique needs and concerns of each individual client.

Client Focus

Anyone can claim to be truly client focused.  At CMS Cameron McKenna we've launched one of the legal sector's most comprehensive client feedback programmes to measure just how focused we are. We ask for feedback regularly, often using an independent interviewer to talk to clients face-to-face.  We find this approach helps us get an honest opinion on our performance and our overall relationship.

Opportunities Abroad

Our European presence successfully combines local and European resources to offer a full range of legal services to our clients and some exciting career opportunities to our graduate trainees.

It is expected that graduates who join the firm will spend one seat outside of our London flagship office. This may include time in the UK at other regional offices such as Aberdeen, Bristol or Edinburgh or on a UK based client secondment. Outside of the UK there is the opportunity to be seconded to one of our leading CEE offices including Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia, and
Ukraine. A course of language lessons before and during your stay abroad, plus help with relocation, will ensure the transition is as smooth as possible during these six months.

Vacation Schemes

We offer undergraduates the opportunity to spend two weeks at CMS Cameron McKenna to find out more about our firm, and gain an insight into the 'life of a trainee solicitor'. The scheme allows you to spend a week in two different practice areas, and undertake various presentations, workshops and social events.

Our vacation schemes run over Christmas, Easter and summer, and are open to anyone who is interested in pursuing a legal career. We also run schemes at our Bristol and Scottish offices.
