Careers

We recruit solicitors, trainee solicitors and paralegals throughout the
year for most of our practice areas as well as for non-legal support roles.

We are always looking for smart, talented, motivated legal professionals to join our team.  As one of the busiest and most successful law firms in Middlesex and West London, we can offer you the chance to have a tangible impact on people’s lives and their business success.

Our recruitment process is straightforward and usually involves one or two interviews with a senior solicitor and a partner. Our interviews are informal and relaxed conversations intended to allow you to perform to the best of your ability and give you the opportunity to ask questions.

Our ethos is to always act in the client’s best interests.  We are responsive, caring, and believe that everyone should have access to justice.  Our clients range from highly profitable family businesses to ambitious start-ups; high-net-worth people with significant assets spread across multiple jurisdictions, to young, unemployed youths facing the criminal justice system.
