Rec Consultants

Introduction

LPA Legal Recruitment was established in 1995 and is one of the major players in the legal recruitment market. Based in the heart of legal London (Gray's Inn), our professionally trained consultants operate through five divisions - LPA Private Practice, LPA In-House & Banking, LPA Partners & Teams, LPA HR/Marketing/Support Services and LPA Barristers Chambers - and draw on their extensive contacts and market knowledge to offer a level of service considered by many to be unrivalled. We also have alliances with consultancies in the Asia-Pacific region, and the USA. Our clients include UK, US and international law firms and industry clients in a diverse range of sectors from Investment Banking to Media. We are also instructed by law firms and industry clients overseas, covering the Asia Pacific region, Middle East, emerging markets countries, off-shore jurisdictions and mainland Europe.

LPA Private Practice

Lawyers at all levels are recruited on behalf of a wide range of law firms, from the magic circle and US firms to the smallest niche practices. We also service the recruitment needs of barristers' chambers, sourcing both barristers and marketing/administrative staff. With over 25 years combined experience our consultants are well positioned to advise on market trends and salaries.

LPA In-House & Banking

Our specialist In-House consultants source candidates on behalf of many of the biggest names in the investment banking world, as well as a large number of commercial and retail banks. We also recruit for a large range of multinationals and smaller private companies in sectors such as IT, energy, pharmaceuticals, telecoms, construction, financial services and FMCG. Candidates are recruited at every level from Paralegal to General Counsel.

LPA Partners & Teams

LPA Partners & Teams caters only to partners and teams of lawyers. LPA have put together a number of high profile partner and team moves over the last five years. As the deals became larger, more frequent, and more complex, a decision was taken to launch a designated division which would service the strategic requirements of law firms in the UK and internationally.

LPA HR, Marketing and Senior Executives

LPA HR, Marketing and Senior Executives meets the needs of our clients' rapidly expanding businesses in the areas of HR, marketing, business development, finance and general management. The division sources high calibre professionals in all these areas, from junior through to board level, into Law Firms and Barristers’ Chambers.

LPA Barristers Chambers

LPA began working with sets of Chambers in 2002, and as far as we are aware, has since become the first and only full-service recruitment consultancy to the Bar. As well as covering individual Barrister moves, teams of Barristers and mid-ranking to senior Clerks, our services to the Bar have expanded in proportion to the Bar's modernisation. The introduction of new management structures within chambers has led to the creation of many high profile opportunities for Chief Executives, Chambers Directors, Chambers Managers and Marketing/Business Development staff, many of whom bring experience from different business sectors to the Bar. Contingency, advertised selection and retained and non-retained search are the methodologies offered. LPA also provides advice to Chambers on recruitment strategy, lateral barrister business planning and interviewing techniques.
