Building Ethical Legal Careers

We've spent years understanding what makes legal professionals truly successful – and it starts with getting the fundamentals right

Started with a Simple Question

Back in 2018, we noticed something troubling. Brilliant law graduates were entering practice with excellent technical knowledge but struggling with the ethical complexities they faced every day.

So we started small – working with a handful of firms to bridge that gap. What began as weekend workshops has grown into comprehensive career development programs that help legal professionals navigate both the letter and spirit of their profession.

We're not about quick fixes or shortcuts. Real professional development takes time, and we've learned that the most successful lawyers are those who understand ethics isn't just about compliance – it's about building a sustainable career you can be proud of.

What Guides Our Work

️

Practical Ethics

Ethics isn't theoretical when you're facing real clients with real problems. We focus on practical frameworks that work in the messiness of actual legal practice.

Long-term Thinking

Career development isn't about landing your next role – it's about building expertise and reputation that sustains you throughout your professional life.

Real Relationships

The legal profession is built on trust and relationships. We help you develop both the skills and the character that clients and colleagues respect.

Who We Are

Alistair Cromwell

Senior Ethics Advisor

Spent fifteen years in commercial litigation before realizing his real passion was helping other lawyers navigate ethical challenges. Has that rare ability to make complex regulatory requirements actually make sense.

Imogen Blackthorne

Professional Development Director

Former partner at a mid-tier firm who discovered that the most successful lawyers aren't just technically competent – they're the ones who can balance competing interests while maintaining their integrity.

Where We're Headed

Every day, legal professionals face decisions that test their judgment, their values, and their career aspirations. We want to be the resource they turn to – not for easy answers, but for the frameworks and confidence to make those decisions well.

Our autumn 2025 programs represent years of refinement based on what actually works in practice. Because ultimately, this profession needs lawyers who can be both successful and ethical – and we believe those two things aren't just compatible, they're inseparable.
