About The Lawyer...



We have trained some of the finest business journalists in the UK: could you be next? The Lawyer is the multi-award-winning title for news, analysis and business intelligence to the influential commercial legal sector and has become a global digital brand with numerous events every year. It is recognised for its forward-looking content and senior audience and has regularly won trophies for its market-leading journalism, insight and data.



We report breaking news and pick out emerging trends in one of the most powerful and influential business sectors in the world. Our readers work at major global law firms, top barristers’ chambers and in-house departments in businesses across the UK and beyond.



The Lawyer is recognised as one of the best places to start a journalistic career, with unparalleled hands-on training. Our alumni are at major news organisations around the globe, but we also offer plenty of progression to grow within The Lawyer into more senior positions.
