Our people are the key to our success. We'd like to share some of their stories with you.
A lot of firms I’ve worked for talked about ‘playing hard and working hard’ and this normally translated to no work/life balance. NLS is an employee centric responsible and mature employer that believes in ‘developing & nurturing hard’. You are important to your management team, your wellbeing is paramount. Do the best for your clients and NLS will do it’s best for you.
It's a great place to work with lots of opportunities for progression. I also work with a fantastic team of people who are passionate about what they do. The company is growing and the future is full of great opportunities. If you are looking for a rewarding career in family law, NLS is a great place to be.
As cliché as this may sound, National Legal Service Solicitors is a great company to work for. Their ethos & support for their employees nationally, is commendable. Their success story speaks volumes and this is all down to great management and teams working together as a family.
