Life at Amicus Law

Hear from our team about what makes Amicus Law a great place to build your career.

Zara Mawbey, Legal Assistant

“Some of you reading this will think it’s a little farfetched and possibly even made up, but I can honestly say I love working for Amicus and I love my job.

I had always wanted to work in the Law industry but for various reasons never went on to study at college or university.

An opportunity came up for a receptionist in our Martock office and I thought “why not try”. After being offered the job and accepting it I became rather nervous due to having no experience within the law industry and thought everyone would be too “educated” to speak to someone unqualified.

How wrong was I.

Everyone you meet is friendly, down to earth and always happy to help. We’re one big happy work family.

I have very quickly progressed from receptionist to legal assistant and on the path to doing my CILEX training and I owe that to Amicus. When they see potential in their staff, they will do everything they can to help you achieve your goal.”

Russel Munster, Trainee Solicitor

“Following a successful career in estate agency, I made the decision to change direction and pursue my passion for law. From previous dealings with Amicus Law during my time in estate agency, I knew they had an enthusiasm to progress their team and had the tools and training available to help me achieve my goals. They are one of the most well-regarded law firms in our area and they were a clear choice for me. Since working at Amicus I have received an incredible amount of support to progress my career goals having recently enrolled in the solicitor apprenticeship programme. Everyone here has been friendly, supportive, and helpful which has made the transition into this career all the more enjoyable.For anyone thinking of joining Amicus Law, you won’t regret it!””

Erin Darling-Finan, Chartered Legal Executive

“Perhaps a bit of a cliché, but Amicus really does feel like one big family! It can be so scary walking into a new job, not knowing anyone. Even I, who will talk the hind legs off the proverbial, felt mega shy on my first day, but everyone makes such an effort to make you feel welcome. Amicus is the kind of place where your colleagues quickly become friends – I haven’t met one person here who isn’t super lovely and kind. There’s also such a strong camaraderie, and a proper “team” feel, even between departments. Amicus love to champion and support their employees’ achievements, both professional and personal, and you really do get the sense that they are behind you 100%.”

Kelechi Adiele, Litigation Paralegal

“I joined Amicus Law barely four months after I arrived in the UK. I was looking for a broad-based law firm with a strong reputation for excellent legal service delivery where I could kickstart my legal career in the UK having previously practiced as a lawyer in a foreign jurisdiction. Amicus Law gave me that opportunity. It turns out that I could not have made a better choice. At Amicus Law, I met a community of very warm and friendly folks ever so willing to assist and support me and this has helped me to settle in very quickly. Amicus Law places emphasis on staff capacity building. I am undergoing training on a continuous basis and receiving encouragement to pursue my immediate career objective which is to qualify as a Solicitor in the UK. The management team at Amicus Law is sensitive and responsive and the work environment is conducive. It is just one big family here where teams are supportive, and work can be fun.”

Julie Huxley, Conveyancing Paralegal

“Working at Amicus Law has given me a new sense of direction. Anytime my job challenges me, my effort is recognised and encouraged as I meet the challenge. My working environment is extremely motivating and rewarding and the opportunities I have been shown are inspiring.

I am grateful to be able to work in a firm dedicated to not only its work but also to its staff.”

Alex Parris, Associate (MCILEX)

“I recently completed the Amicus Law Pathway to Associateship Programme and I am delighted to have become an Associate. The programme offered a great opportunity to develop my wider skill set, specifically in leadership, business planning, and commercial insight. The support and guidance provided by Claire throughout was invaluable.

Amicus Law marries excellent client service with an inclusive culture; it is an enjoyable and supportive place to work where everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential. I’m looking forward to taking the next steps in progressing my career with the firm.”
