Working as a Consultant Solicitor gives you the flexibility to plan your working hours, the freedom to take holidays to suit you, and your choice of location, should you choose to work from home. With no commute, and no requirement to attend office-based management meetings, you could use those hours more profitably to maximise your billable hours should you wish or focus on a better work-life balance with your family. Additionally, you can enjoy substantial financial benefits; for instance, the financial benefits that would accrue to someone with a following of 100k plus on a fee-share basis would far outweigh what you could expect to earn in a salaried role.
