What makes a Spencer West Lawyer?

At Spencer West we look for the following key qualities from our lawyers:

• Proven technical expertise - typically from having worked at some stage of their careers at a leading national or international law firm, or for example from having 20,000 hours (10 years) of experience in a chosen field. You are either a leader in your field or have aspirations to be.
  
  
• Business-person approach – this could be demonstrated in various ways: perhaps you have set up your own business; perhaps you have worked in-house; or you may have worked closely with owners and finance directors of owner-managed businesses; or you can demonstrate a commercially driven approach.
  
  
• Team player – we are proud of having a uniquely warm supportive culture, where colleagues work together and support each other. Our lawyers benefit from developing a strong pipeline of referral opportunities, while being able to channel the right practice and sector expertise to each assignment. It also makes for an enjoyable and friendly work culture

For us, every Partner and their family matters to us. We are a community, while providing the space and flexibility for each lawyer joining us to develop their practice how they wish. We provide every support so that our lawyers flourish.
