We’re on a mission to help law firms attract, recruit and retain the right lawyers through our refreshing approach to legal recruitment – because we know that when firms have the right lawyers, they grow more sustainably and are more profitable.
Lawyers specialise in one area to become true experts in their field – and our recruiters are no different. With each of our consultants covering just one practice area in a focused region, we know pretty much everyone you might want to recruit. When you partner with us, our strong, long-term relationships with the brightest legal talent become your relationships too, so we are better able to connect you with the right people.
We provide an end-to-end, insight-driven service and partner with firms to deliver unique insight that will help you differentiate in a crowded talent market, cut time-to-hire and minimise the opportunity cost of empty seats. We ask the right questions of law firms and lawyers at each stage of the recruitment process, so we can put the right lawyers in front of you. This takes the guesswork out of recruitment and provides a catalyst for growth.
We’ve invested in an experienced in-house marketing team to help you shout about your employer brand. We deliver value-added content to those open to moving firms now and help you build a stronger, long-term presence with those who will move in the future. So, as well as connecting you with the right lawyers, we help the right lawyers find you.

Because hundreds of law firms can't be wrong.
With each of our consultants covering just one practice area in a focused region, we have engaged communities of specialist lawyers and are better able to connect you with the right people.

We are your megaphone in the market to help the right lawyers find you.
If recruitment feels hard these days, it’s because it is. From our primary research, we know the number of lawyers looking for a new opportunity is not only tight but shrinking – and that this is proving to be not only a headache for most firms, but a growth inhibitor too.
So, it is even more important than before that you partner with the right recruiter to connect you with the talent you are looking for.
Unlike most recruitment agencies, who will only be investing in marketing to a shrinking pool of active jobseekers, we are investing in developing relationships with lawyers earlier on in their decision-making process, so that when they are ready to explore opportunities, they will come to us.
We have vast audiences across email marketing, social media and our video channels, and keep our talent pools highly engaged with content to help them with skill development and career progression.
Each year, we conduct in-depth research to find out why lawyers are choosing to stay with their current employer or making them vulnerable to having their heads turned by other firms.
Our unique insight enables us to advise law firms on how to best attract and retain talent, build a strong employer value proposition, and ultimately, help them to grow sustainably.

Realm were introduced to Maguire Family Law by recommendation and we have not been disappointed. Duane came to our office to meet the team and get a grasp of our ethos. We have only ever received appropriate CVs, excellent communication and client care. Thank you, team Realm.

Lucy was proactive as soon as she was instructed. Her communication was great and she kept us up to date on all steps and listened to our requirements with helpful suggestions along the way.

Kelly has been absolutely brilliant to work with over the last 12 months. She quickly understood the culture of our firm, and what we were looking for. In a very difficult and passive market she was able to find excellent candidates for us, who have been a brilliant fit into our team and firm. Kelly has recruited 5 team members for us, and we're going from strength to strength.

Joseph has been, and continues to be, a pleasure to deal with. He is both professional and personable and crucially, he has a real feel for our business. His understanding of the brief and the type of candidates we require means there have been regular success stories as our team continues to grow.

We have used Realm Recruit for a number of years now. The main person there who deals with personal injury and clinical negligence recruitment is Joseph Shenton. Joe is always proactive without being too pushy and has found us some great candidates. He is very good at keeping us informed as to what is going on and puts candidates forward who can not only do the job, but who will also be a good fit for the firm and its values

"At Brabners we’ve worked with Realm for a number of years now and it's been a positive experience. It's a good relationship and we enjoy dealing with the Realm team. They’re our kind of people and are good to deal with. But beyond that, they get what we're about and they understand what sets us apart as a firm and what we looking for. When it comes to the candidates the Realm team put forward, it's about quality, not quantity - we don't get bombarded with unsuitable CVs. It’s not just a tick box exercise based on experience, their consultants work to understand the candidate and whether they'd be a good fit for us and that we'd be a good fit for them."

Each time we have provided Lucy with a candidate brief, we have been provided with high-level consultancy support. Lucy is very diligent and detail-focused on the requirements of our candidate brief - and critically - delivers results. It is refreshing to work with a "commercially aware" recruitment consultant who truly understands our business. We look forward to Lucy assisting our business with our growth road plan.
