Testimonials
At Realm, we truly value the feedback we receive from our clients and candidates. Their comments speak volumes about the fantastic service and expert market knowledge of our dedicated legal recruitment team. Read what some of them have to say below.

“Bill has always been extremely patient and supportive. We are a niche law firm and sourcing for our roles requires an in depth knowledge of the market. Bill is a true expert and always stands up to a challenge. He takes time to listen and comes back with solutions. He helped me with several roles and it almost felt as if he would be working with us in the office. Aside from being a legal recruitment expert, he is also a fantastic people person and builds long lasting relationships with clients.”

“I would definitely recommend Realm as an agency of choice. Kelly and Bill have been fantastic. The team takes time to understand the firm its culture and roles. Instead of offering promised they cannot fulfil, they come back with real solutions. They also consult with us in regards to the market and advise on matters, which is what consultants should do (not only resource). Bill has always been extremely patient and supportive.

“"At Brabners we’ve worked with Realm for a number of years now and it's been a positive experience. It's a good relationship and we enjoy dealing with the Realm team. They’re our kind of people and are good to deal with. But beyond that, they get what we're about and they understand what sets us apart as a firm and what we looking for. When it comes to the candidates the Realm team put forward, it's about quality, not quantity - we don't get bombarded with unsuitable CVs. It’s not just a tick box exercise based on experience, their consultants work to understand the candidate and whether they'd be a good fit for us and that we'd be a good fit for them."”

Managing Partner
“We turned to Kelly when we were looking for a Head of our Private Client department. She took the time to understand our business and culture and quickly provided several very credible candidates for a role for which we had been finding it difficult to find the right person. We found a fantastic solicitor with great skills and who fits our ethos very well. Kelly supported us throughout and I highly recommend her.”
Chris Gawne
Director at Price Slater Gawne Solicitors
“Anyone who has made a ‘wrong’ appointment will know the true value of getting it right! Getting the right fit, is so much more than what is found on a CV. We are interested in what motivates our staff and how they instinctively approach client care. Values are everything to us and Joe recognises this. ”

Managing Partner at Jobling Gowler Solicitors
“Each time we have provided Lucy with a candidate brief, we have been provided with high-level consultancy support. Lucy is very diligent and detail-focused on the requirements of our candidate brief - and critically - delivers results. It is refreshing to work with a "commercially aware" recruitment consultant who truly understands our business. We look forward to Lucy assisting our business with our growth road plan.”

“Realm have been, and continues to be, a pleasure to deal with. They are professional and personable and have a real feel for our business. Their understanding of the brief and the type of candidates we require means there have been regular success stories as our team continues to grow. ”

Partner at CL MediLaw
“Paula was fantastic – she clearly had top candidates in mind when we first met but she took the time to listen to our needs, ethos and plans before suggesting anyone to meet. The first candidate we met was the one who eventually joined us so her instinct was right. ”

Partner and National Family Team Manager at Clarke Wilmott
“I would not hesitate to recommend Rebecca and the team at Realm. I have worked with Realm in the past but this was the first time working with Rebecca and she was very friendly, proactive and responsive. She was a great help in finding us a new member of the team.”
Emily Thomas
Head of Broking at The Judge Global
“After working with Rebecca and the team at Realm for a little while now, we have filled the two commercial litigation roles we had advertised with two good quality candidates. Realm have a great understanding of both the firm, the commercial litigation team and what we are looking for. This has come across with the candidates they have provided.”
