The firm has a reputation for providing exceptional legal services across various sectors such as Private Client, Corporate, Commercial, Dispute Resolution/Litigation, IP, Real Estate, Tax, IT, Employment, Regulatory, Fintech, etc.

The firm operates on a consultancy model and is described as combining the best parts of private practice and consultancy. It was established by Partners who are a former CEO and a consultant at a leading fee share firm, recognizing and addressing the typical pain points of a consultancy model. They have implemented plans to maintain a strong commercial brand, a measured recruitment process, and excellent culture and retention rates.

What they are doing differently

• Recruitment process focused on hiring not only the best talent but also ensuring a great cultural fit (not solely based on following size)
• An uncompromising approach to quality
• Maintaining a collaborative, energetic, and enthusiastic environment (no silo mentality)
• Access to support teams in Compliance, Finance, Admin, Marketing, and paralegals, allowing you to focus on building your practice and benefiting your clients
• Support during restrictive covenant periods, with discussions during the interview process about permissible work and ongoing marketing & business development initiatives
• A vibrant social calendar, both face-to-face and virtual, fostering a strong culture across the UK and internationally

What you get

• Take home 75% of your billings plus referral fees, which range between 10-30%
• Flexibility to decide when, how, and where you work (genuine work-life balance) — remote working is standard
• Unlimited holidays
• A nurturing and inspiring team culture
• Opportunity to work with talented and well-ranked Partners
• Recognition as Boutique Firm of the Year 2023 by Legal 500 and Law Firm of the Year 2024 by Modern Law Awards

Requirements

• Client following of £150,000+
• 10+ PQE (considering candidates with less who have substantial experience)
• Personable, approachable, collaborative, and a good cultural fit

Location: UK (Remote working available, with offices in London, Birmingham, and Manchester)
