Legal Recruitment and Hiring Resources
While the legal sector, as with most industry types, is currently dealing with “The Great Resignation,” legal recruitment, hiring, and employee retention can be difficult at the best of times. This can be particularly true for small firms competing with large firms who can pay a premium for staff.
However, there are a lot of things that firms can do to compete in the legal recruitment space and to keep good employees, as these resources outline:
- Legal Recruitment: A Legal Recruiter’s Guide to Attracting the Best Talent
- Rejecting Toxic Law Firm Culture: How to Create a Better Culture for Your Firm
- 5 Easy Staff Appreciation Ideas For Law Firms
Legal Compliance Resources
If there’s one thing that can keep firm owners and partners awake at night, it’s the fear of meeting regulatory compliance requirements. Whether it’s trying to find professional indemnity insurance for solicitors that won’t break the bank, maintaining cybersecurity and data protection, maintaining SRA compliance, or achieving the Lexcel Standard, compliance can be a tricky area to navigate.
That’s why Clio put together the following resources together with some noted UK compliance experts:
- Achieving the Lexcel Standard: What You Need to Know
- Cloud-Based Law Firm Software Vs. On-Premise Servers
- SRA Compliance and Practice Management Software
- Solicitors’ Professional Indemnity Insurance: An Interview with Frances Lodge of Lockton UK
