“We understand that in-house functions are under huge pressure to work more efficiently – with fewer resources and increase demands, and with this in mind we want to offer them genuine solutions that is based on a quality service.

“Our success to date has been based on the relationships that we have with our clients and our understanding of their business needs.

The new office, based at Woburn Place, will provide a full in-house legal recruitment service to a niche range of commercial businesses in the Media, IT and technology sectors.

The specialist team will focus on placing lawyers and paralegals into companies across London and the Home Counties, on a contract and permanent basis.
