It’s no surprise to see hours rise, and that London lawyers are feeling the strain. Many traditional firms talk the talk when it comes to flexible or agile working, but few are walking the walk. Good intentions often can’t overcome entrenched cultures of inflexibility and overwork - and culture is the hardest element to change. Many lawyers are turning to consultancy models that are built on freedom and flexibility to remedy the long hours and lack of balance traditional firms often demand. Having just expanded our Chancery Lane offices we are receiving high levels of interest from quality City lawyers who can see their current path taking them further away from a career they enjoy. Quite simply, there is a better way of working that allows lawyers of all specialities to be masters of their own time, and their own destiny.
