The Firm
Bellevue Law is a leading boutique firm specialising in workplace law and commercial disputes.
We have one of the largest teams of partner-level employment and partnership lawyers in the UK, advising both senior executives and partners and corporate clients and professional service firms on a wide range of workplace legal issues.
We are known for combining legal expertise with holistic service, and pride ourselves on client satisfaction. Since we started our annual survey in 2018, clients have rated us over 9/10 on average every year when asked how likely they are to recommend us to a friend or colleague.
The firm has been built around a commitment to both flexible working and – as one of the UK’s very few B Corp-certified law firms – ethical business practices. You can read our 2025 Impact Report here.
“The skill set and experience of these senior lawyers. Punching above their weight whilst driving ethical change.”
– LEGAL 500 2025
Our collegiate, friendly culture is at the heart of our success, and in our Autumn 2024 colleague survey:
- 100% of team members praised our culture;
- 95% said the firm behaves in accordance with its values, and the same proportion that it provides the support and resources to help them meet their goals; and
- Both internal communication and the balance between profit, purpose and people were rated 9/10 on average.
“I feel like the shackles of regular employment have been lifted and I’m free to do what I love and do the best job for my clients, in a way that fits around my family life and personal obligations.”

The Role
We have exciting growth plans and are looking for talented experienced senior lawyers – typically with 10 years + PQE gained in private practice or in-house – to join our existing 21-strong team workplace law team as Senior Consultants.
With no chargeable hour targets, we offer the opportunity to achieve autonomy and flexibility without compromising on the quality of your legal work while stepping away from time-consuming non-chargeable responsibilities.
You can choose to work from our Central London head office, from a selection of serviced office spaces across the UK, or from home. While self-employed, you will be part of a friendly, collegiate team with a host of opportunities for in-person and online collaboration, regular training and social events. You will also receive access to excellent technology, resources and administrative support.
“It’s been everything I hoped for and more. Bellevue offers a perfect balance of autonomy and collegiality. I love feeling like my own boss, but within the security and conviviality of a firm.”

The successful candidates will have backgrounds in leading practices and/or in-house, and great technical abilities, client care and ethical standards and interpersonal skills. You will be trusted as an advisor and capable of developing relationships with, and attracting work from, your clients.
However, we do not require a following as we have work to share and provide extensive business development support and opportunities. In fact, several of our team have built successful practices after joining us with no clients (including following career breaks), so we know from experience that great lawyers will thrive on our platform.
