Our rapid growth means we are looking to expand our Legal Team.

    Our organisational culture is one that thrives on innovation and creativity, blended with fairness and openness. As such we operate as a meritocracy, with emphasis on equal opportunities, inclusion and diversity, where everyone’s ideas are valued.

    We develop our own technology in-house, including Virtual Lawyer (“VL”), an award-winning tool that helps individuals write without prejudice letters and other documents. VL has received government funding from Innovate UK and the product is to feature on one of our University partners’ LLB courses.
