We are very happy with the recruitment service provided by LR Legal. They were proactive in finding suitable candidates for the roles we needed, very responsive and helpful and great to work with.
Alison and I go back years. She has gone above and beyond to find me my next role. Provided support, guidance and my perfect job. She was focused and committed to my interview, even messaging me on a Sunday to make sure I was ok/ prepared. Perfect agent and not judgmental about your career choice. Supports you 100%
I would not hesitate to recommend Alison for anyone looking for a change. Alison was efficient, helpful and enthusiastic. It was an absolute pleasure speaking with Alison and I would not have got my new role without her. Thank you Alison!
Leilani is amazing at what she does! Changing jobs is difficult as it is, but she was so comforting and reassuring. She was always one text away, and has found me an amazing position at Cook Taylor Woodhouse! Thank you Leilani

I have worked with LR legal for several years now and their teams have produced some excellent candidates for us over those years and continue to do so currently. The candidates are always well prepared and turn up on time whether the interview is by zoom or face-to-face. It is a pleasure to work with them and they understand what our firm is looking for. I have to say that Alison Banks in particular really found the candidates that fit into our culture and have the skills we need.
