Garfield Robbins specialises in recruiting qualified lawyers and solicitors into roles in leading London and Regional law firms. Our clients, built up from 1989, include magic circle and silver circle firms, Legal 500 law firms, US law firms in London and regional offices of major law firms around the UK.

We recruit qualified solicitors and lawyers from newly qualified, to senior assistants and partner levels across all functional areas of private practice jobs and are currently recruiting for:

• Banking and Finance roles
• Corporate roles

• Employment and Employee Benefits roles
• Environment and Planning roles
• EU Competition roles
• Financial Services roles
• Insolvency and restructuring roles
• Litigation and arbitration roles
• Real Estate roles
• Tax roles

The private practice market in the UK has certainly weakened with the global recession, particularly in the transactional areas of banking, corporate and real estate, there however continue to be opportunities, especially in the more recession proof areas such as litigation/arbitration, insolvency/restructuring, employment and financial regulation.

For a more detailed discussion on the current London Private Practice market please contact one of our consultants on 0845 671 0199 or email them on info@garfieldrobbins.com. Your applications will be treated in the strictest of confidence.
