Leading Black Country law firm George Green LLP has taken on two new trainee solicitors and appointed two assistant solicitors who have completed their training contract with the firm. 

Mike Linford becomes an Assistant Solicitor with George Green’s highly regarded Corporate team based in Cradley Heath. 27 year old Mr Linford was born in Norfolk and now lives in Birmingham. He has a politics degree from the University of Nottingham and completed his LPC at the BPP Law School. Mike is the current company secretary for the Birmingham Trainee Solicitors Society. Laura Scott also becomes an Assistant Solicitor in the Dispute Resolution team.   26 year old Laura was born in and still resides in Solihull and attended Aston University where she awarded a 2:1 degree in Business and Management. She completed her LPC at the College of Law in Birmingham. 

Jess Phillips and Pippa Lee join the firm as trainee solicitors.  25 year old Jess was born in London and attended Wolverhampton Grammar School, Cambridge University and the College of Law in Birmingham. 24 year old Laura was born in Northampton and attended University of Sussex and the College of Law in Birmingham.

George Green presently has four trainee solicitors among its professional staff and aims to recruit two new trainees each year. 

Senior Partner Paul Bennett said “I’m delighted that both Mike and Laura have decided to continue their career with us.  Both of them have made a positive impact during their two year training contracts. Competition for training contracts is extremely high at the moment and this is mirrored in the improved standard of applications received. Both Jess and Pippa should be proud of themselves to be offered a training contract after a fairly tough and rigorous interview process. I wish all four of them all the best in their careers.  The future is bright for the firm and these talented individuals.”
