We are keen to talk to experienced business solicitors with a genuine aptitude for working with small and medium sized businesses, providing practical legal advice and able to build a following.
If you would like the freedom to do a fantastic job for your clients in an environment that truly rewards your hard work and success, we’d like to talk to you.
Cousins Business Law offers:
- Direct financial rewards – you are paid for work done and bills paid. You get a percentage share of whatever the client pays. The more you bill, the more you receive.
- Total flexi-time - as long as the clients are happy, you choose when and where you work.
- Flexibility around holidays and family commitments – we believe that real professionals should be trusted and left to do their work when they decide.
- Great support from and direct access to the senior partner.
- The option to work from home and avoid the commute.

Our background
Cousins Business Law (www.business-lawfirm.co.uk) is an exciting, specialist, highly regarded small law firm which has attracted lawyers from Legal 500 and well renowned local firms. Operating in an innovative way, the firm offers a flexible alternative to working for a 'traditional' practice.
Our lawyers usually work from a home-office base and are fully supported by the latest in IT, telecommunications and web-enabled software, as well as by first-class marketing and finance departments. Regular team and client meetings, training and support on marketing and client care skills, and networking activities provide the interaction of an office environment but without the interruptions.
This way of working has consistently won praise including the Broadband Britain Challenge Champions, the DTI E-Commerce Awards regional winner and Best Law Firm Website in the E-Loties. We expect to receive LEXCEL accreditation in 2012.
