The right person for the right firm
Our success depends on attracting the
best people and nurturing their talent, so that we can continue to offer the
market-leading legal services that we are known for. Selecting the right
law firm to start your career - or spend your summer - is an important decision. At
CC-Advocates, we are very selective about the first-year associates and summer
associates we invite to join us.
Working environment
CC-Advocates provides a professional environment in which
talented young professionals flourish, achieve their potential and enjoy their
work. This provides a breeding ground of innovative and ground breaking
legal skills and excellence in legal knowledge. We are interested in what
each person can contribute, both individually and working alongside others. If
you join us, you will find some great colleagues and fascinating work.
CC-Advocates' tradition of
excellence, commitment to client service and lean staffing model means that our
associates, both permanent and summer associates, are given significant
responsibilities. They work closely with our partners on substantive matters and
enjoy an unusual degree of client contact. Our collegial atmosphere, without
rigid department borders and formal hierarchy, allows associates to work in more
than one area of interest. Professional development is fostered as new lawyers
learn how different areas of the law interact.
Investing in
your development
CC-Advocates is
fully committed to helping each professional develop and broaden his or
her skills, whatever the role. As a CCA member, you will have the
opportunity to learn as you work alongside colleagues who are leaders in their
field and to build on your skills through our extensive in-house training
programmes. And at every stage of your career, we will work with you to
help you achieve your career goals.
Partners' personal involvement
To ensure the firm's ethics are
projected by all of its members, the firm's founding partners, Dr Jean-Philippe
and Dr Maria Chetcuti-Cauchi, are involved first hand in the selection and
direction of its
employees and value the importance of on-going
communication with employees at all levels.
CC-Advocates enjoys a long reputation as a good employer
taking a personal interest in its workforce. As a result many of its lawyers and
professional staff have spent their working lives with the firm, growing
internally both professionally and personally.
Lifestyle
Life at CC-Advocates is not all work and no play. The social
life of the firm is as important as its professional profile. We believe in the
importance of maintaining a personal balance between work and leisure and of not
only "working hard" but "playing hard" too.
Our Social Events Committee is responsible for creating
opportunities for the firm's members to meet in different environments and to
interact in social, cultural and leisure settings. Throughout the year, the SEC
regularly organises cultural tours, informal and formal drinks, barbequeues,
football and handball tournaments, and other team building activities.
Equal
opportunities
We recruit on
merit and believe in equality of opportunity. There is no one "CC-Advocates type"
- although we do look for people who share our values, our ambition to be the
best, our commitment to delivering the highest quality service, and our wish to
work within a community of people who respect and co-operate with each other.
For the right people, we offer excellent opportunities
Whether you are
just starting out in your career or looking to make a lateral move, either as a
lawyer or business professional, find out what we can offer - and decide if we
are the right firm for you.
