Diversity and Inclusion

We believe traditional law firms are outdated. Long hours and punishing billing targets mean that lawyers often don't have the time or capacity to do their best work. Which, in turn, means client satisfaction and customer care suffer.

At Setfords, we do things differently.

We treat people like people, not casework. Our pioneering and award-winning consultant-led model is disrupting a centuries-old market, allowing us to put our lawyers and clients' best interests at the heart of everything we do. We are building a team that uses rich datasets, cutting-edge tech and industry-leading marketing smarts to deliver our vision: to be a law firm for everyone., At Setfords, we believe the only way we will deliver on our business' amazing potential is by working together. We share in each other's successes, and help each other out when things don't go to plan - and we do so with a total absence of ego, blame, or internal competition.

Here to help

We help our clients and our consultants succeed because we are always happy to go the extra mile. Our first thought is always "I'm here to help", not "is it my job to?", and we relish the opportunities that this brings: to go beyond our comfort zone, and to learn new skills.

Smart problem-solvers

We work with thousands of clients and hundreds of lawyers every year - and every year we get better at understanding what those clients and lawyers need. We use cutting-edge tools, data analytics and subject-matter expertise to inform all of our judgements, and bring an entrepreneur's mindset to work every day, always looking for ways to improve our offering.

Break new ground

Setfords is transforming a centuries-old industry, and we are doing it fast. We love the challenges and opportunities that our high-growth, dynamic culture generates, and we are always on the lookout for a new technology or interesting new perspective that will allow us to get to our destination even faster.

Nurturing talent

Whether you are a lawyer who has been qualified for decades or a new hire embarking on the first steps of your career, we believe in giving everyone within our business the opportunity to reach their full potential. We have a proven track record of promoting from within, and many of our leaders and future leaders have started their working journeys at Setfords. For our consultants, we provide the platform, coaching and support that allows our lawyers to provide legal services the way they want.
