(A) Habits we dropped

Things you won't get from us.

Forty CVs on a Friday afternoon. Three or four people, and we've met every one of them.

Candidates matched on keywords. Every application read by someone who's worked in a law firm.

A new consultant every few months. The same person from the first call to the start date.

Silence once the invoice is paid. A call a few weeks in, to check it's working for both of you.

(B) Who we place

FirmsSmall and mid-sized practices.

Practice areasAll of them, from conveyancing to commercial litigation.

WhereAnywhere in England and Wales. Office, hybrid or remote.

For firmsYou

i.A proper briefing call. We'll ask about the work, the team, and why the last hire didn't work out, if one didn't.
ii.A short list with notes. Each candidate comes with a written note on why they fit, why they want to move and what they're expecting to earn.
iii.A better price. Already have a written quote from another agency? Send it over and we'll beat it.

For lawyers

i.You control your CV. It only goes to a firm after you've agreed to that firm by name.
ii.An honest picture. The work, the people, the hours, and why the job's open in the first place.
iii.A straight answer. If a role isn't right for you, we'll say so.
