RBG’s trainees now all rehomed after profession rallies round

The Lawyer reports on the culmination of the CLLS's efforts to support trainees affected by the collapse of RBG Holdings.

The article notes that the listed firm collapsed at the end of January after failing to find buyers for its constituent parts, leaving lawyers and business services staff without jobs.

Four of the firm’s 10 trainees transferred almost immediately to Rosenblatt Law, the group of lawyers that split away from RBG to form a new firm as it collapsed.

A a number of firms stepped up at that point volunteering to help the remainder. More then came forward after the City of London Law Society put out a call asking for help.
