Our people are the key to our success A lot of firms I’ve worked for talked about ‘playing hard and working hard’ and this normally translated to no work/life balance. NLS is an employee‑centric, responsible and mature employer that believes in ‘developing & nurturing hard’. You are important to your management team, your wellbeing is paramount. Do the best for your clients and NLS will do its best for you.

It's a great place to work with lots of opportunities for progression. I also work with a fantastic team of people who are passionate about what they do. The company is growing and the future is full of great opportunities. If you are looking for a rewarding career in family law, NLS is a great place to be.

As cliché as this may sound, National Legal Service Solicitors is a great company to work for. Their ethos and support for employees nationally is commendable. Their success story speaks volumes and this is all down to great management and teams working together as a family.

It has been a fresh challenge, working with other committed supervisors, and a great team. We have worked hard to achieve protection for many women and men. There are frequent problems to overcome which make the job more interesting and provide fresh challenges. We work hard for our clients and the team as a whole.
