Have you ever considered the cost to your firm of not having the right people in the right positions?
Are you finding it challenging to recruit suitable lawyers, or perhaps facing difficulties in recruiting at all?
We can assist you in evaluating what sets your firm apart and creating an Employer Value Proposition (EVP) that is highly appealing to the right legal professionals in the talent market.
Our team has extensive experience in helping lawyers transition to new roles, and we are well-versed in what captures their interest in potential opportunities and what draws them to (or pushes them away from) a firm.
We’ll begin by assessing your firm’s values, purpose, and vision, providing both qualitative and quantitative data and insights from your existing team, while considering our in-depth understanding of the legal talent market.
By combining this with our Employer Benchmarking service, we can obtain an external perspective that can contribute to shaping your EVP. Since your EVP is unlikely to change significantly over time (unless there is a substantial shift in the external or internal environment, e.g., the impact of lockdown on lawyers’ preference for remote work or a merger), investing in a project to identify and develop your EVP is beneficial for both the present and the future.
We will also provide guidance on how to leverage your EVP to promote your firm and attract talent, and can even review your employer branding materials, such as your website, employee brochures, and job advertisements, to ensure that everything is being effectively and consistently communicated to potential hires.
This service also offers the additional advantage of enhancing employee retention, as you will gain insight into what makes your firm uniquely valuable to legal talent within the firm and in the larger market.
It has been a pleasure working with Michaela on a recent recruitment exercise. Michaela was professional and understood our needs as a legal aid family firm. Michaela secured our most recent new recruit to the firm who has settled in so well and it an excellent for for the firm and clients.

I found Paula on LinkedIn when struggling with a lengthy search to find the right person to bring in to expand our Family Team. Paula was "on it" from the get-go. She took the time to learn about us, what we wanted and most importantly who would fit with our current team culture and ethos. The dedication she puts into her search is reflected by the high-quality candidates she puts forward. She makes the process from start to finish seamless. Paula is certainly my go-to recruiter and I would highly recommend her to candidates and recruiters alike.
