...............Career Legal is an independent recruitment consultancy with a very special reputation.

We have developed into a multi-service agency, able to meet all the recruitment needs of the modern day law practice. We were the first specialised consultancy to satisfy the need for a one stop recruitment service in law. And we were London's first specialised agency to ..................work in partnership with our clients to develop our business in line with the recruitment services that the modern law practice requires.

But the most important factor is our attitude to clients. In a business characterised by short-term solutions, the ..................Career Legal Group aims to build close relationships with individual clients: and we aim to maintain and develop those relationships over a long period of time, so that we can anticipate and then exceed our clients’ expectations.

It is this attention to service quality that sets Career Legal apart. And it has won us preferred-supplier status from clients ranging from the biggest and best-known names in the profession to single-partner practices.

History

The Career Legal Group was established in 1991 by its three ..................working directors (all still involved in the company) to place legal secretaries on a permanent and temporary basis. The original philosophy of the company still applies today: we saw a need to develop the kind of strong two-way relationship with clients that would benefit both sides.

One advantage is that we have been able to recognise and service new client needs in related areas. Career Legal has grown organically, with new divisions added as those needs were identified. Today we operate with 10 divisions and can meet all the recruitment needs of the ...............legal profession, from junior office staff to professionals and partners.

We have also responded to demand in parallel specialisations. In 1994 Hudson York Farrell was established as a separate company to bring the same quality of service and support to the financial services sector and FTSE 500 companies.

The company now employs in excess of 50 staff and from its modest origins is today acknowledged as the market leader in its field. That has been recognised by our peers, culminating in our being voted the best legal recruiter in the UK.

Today the Career Legal Group can point to a decade of professional and commercial success. We are working for over 500 clients and we have more than 20,000 candidates on our database. We have preferred supplier status with many of the key players. And we have never lost a client to a competitor.
