Driven by their values of collaboration, inclusion, entrepreneurialism and delivery, the Top 75 firm is committed to the long-term development of colleagues, taking pride in platforming lawyers whilst offering a relaxed and people-focused backdrop.

Growing organically. The firm's remit in London and across the South continues to grow, supported by ongoing lateral moves from the City, with people seeking high quality and trendsetting work blended with healthy working practices.

Flexible hours, home-working and a good degree of life balance is the norm, with their success being leveraged on the happiness and fulfilment of staff.

The team is led, not managed, thriving in Developments, Energy, Private Wealth, Media and Retail sectors to name a few.

Many of the now L500 and Chambers-ranked leaders in the business joined as trainees, and instil a sense of pride in supporting junior colleagues on their own journeys. Progression is structured, based on merit, and sustained.

Your well-established presence in the regional market will be utilised from the onset, and with the full backing of the firm, a team will form around your expertise.
