The best firm I have worked for - Legal Executive Spire Solicitors Employee Review

Colleagues are warm, welcoming, and always happy to help. Excellent staff benefits. Comprehensive training. Flexible working options.

Sometimes there are software latency issues but nothing that cannot be easily resolved. Internal and external IT support are always working hard to improve.

I feel very supported by all senior members of staff. My supervisors have all given me support where needed, whilst also letting me run a small caseload to gain real experience. I have also been very involved in the training contract process itself, for example: I have been able to express my preference for which seats I do and their locations. HR have kept me informed and regularly check in with me on throughout my training. There are also lots of social events, from internal firm-only events, to the Spire cup with lots of external businesses. Overall, my journey as a paralegal and trainee solicitor has been very smooth, and tailored to my preferences, so I have gained experience in areas that suit me.

The only downside is the lack of communal staff room, although I understand this is in progress.
