Trainee Wages

murrayp4 · 2011-01-26 14:01:30

Pretty general question here and I'm sure there are disparities between different firms and different size firms...but I'm just wondering how much a trainee can expect to be paid during his/her apprenticeship. I believe the solicitors acts were recently amended to allow the min. wage to be paid- but is this a common level…

In a small to medium firm you'd probably be lucky to get minimum wage. The top firms pay more, cant remember what it is but its pretty decent.
