More information on how consulting works:
Flexibility of consultingThe benefits of legal consulting are wide ranging. You might want more control over your time, to be able to balance professional and personal ambitions such as family responsibilities, a business idea, studies or hobbies. Legal consulting gives you the flexibility to remain in the workforce without putting the rest of life on hold.
You might want more choice and control over, or variety in, your work. Legal consulting enables informed decision-making about the future direction of your career, offering you the opportunity to work with different clients, sectors, and teams (including within A&O Shearman in some cases). It also offers flexibility and options, including the right to accept or decline potential placements or assignments.
Supporting you and your career developmentWhen you join our panel, you’ll receive the full support of our dedicated legal consultant management team, but that’s not all. Throughout the period of your assignment, you’ll also have access to a huge suite of A&O Shearman resources, including:
- An A&O Shearman partner or senior lawyer contact
- A&O Shearman professional support lawyers and knowledge resources
- Bespoke Peerpoint support including: individualised coaching, exclusive events designed to meet your training and networking needs, a specialised consultant development programme on transition management, mindset and business planning and specialised CV/marketing document training
- Further training: Our consultants are invited to attend some of A&O Shearman's legal training and also have access to A&O Shearman's IT training courses
- Client newsletters and seminars
- Invitations to A&O Shearman networks, the A&O Shearman mentoring programme and pro bono opportunities
As a Peerpoint legal consultant, you’re never on your own; instead, you’re part of a community of like-minded lawyers who have all chosen the self-directed route, who are keen to share their experiences and learn from one another.
