    We are Realm - the most specialised legal attraction, retention and recruitment consultancy, helping to develop legal careers and sustainably grow law firms by matching the right lawyers with the right firms through our refreshing approach to legal recruitment.

    We know that when this happens, lawyers are happier, more motivated and enjoy better careers, while law firms are more likely to reach their growth aims.

    We’re incomparably specialist:

    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 every lawyer you might want to recruit and every law firm you might want to join. We build close, long-term relationships with our engaged communities of lawyers and are therefore better able to connect the right people to the right firms.

    We’re consultative:

    We’re not just here for lawyers when they are looking to move. We partner with legal professionals throughout their careers and provide advice on everything from salary benchmarking to helping you smash an upcoming appraisal. For law firms, 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 and take the guesswork and risk out of recruitment.

    We are brand ambassadors:

    We are your megaphone in the legal talent market. Whether by representing a lawyer in their search for a new opportunity or utilising our in-house marketing team to help a law firm build their employer brand, we're experts in building a presence and helping the right lawyers and law firms find each other.
