Here you’ll find top quality work, cutting-edge training, high profile clients and supportive colleagues.

At Shakespeare Martineau you couldn’t be in a better place to succeed. We’re light on rigid hierarchies, and strong on energy, ambition and enjoying what we do.

There are still law firms who see promotion pegged to time-served experience. We don’t. If you show the capability and zeal to do a job our business needs, you’re ready.

There are no artificial barriers. We don’t try to shrink you and your ambitions to fit. We’ll simply set you on the right track for success and give you the support to get there.
