Work with us

At Forest & Co, we know that behind every strong case, every successful client outcome, and every innovation in practice, there are people — people who are passionate about the law, committed to fairness, and driven by purpose.

We are a forward-thinking, multi-disciplinary law firm dedicated to delivering high-quality legal services across immigration, family, criminal, employment, and commercial law. As our work continues to grow, so does our team — and we are always looking to connect with individuals who share our vision.

Whether you are taking your first steps into the legal profession or bringing years of experience to the table, Forest & Co offers a welcoming and rewarding environment where you can thrive.

Forest & Co is currently seeking experienced solicitors with a minimum of five years post-qualification experience to join our team. We are inviting applications from solicitors who specialise in one or more of our core practice areas: immigration, family, criminal, employment, or commercial law.

This is an excellent opportunity to contribute your expertise to a growing and client-focused firm, where your knowledge will be valued and your work will make a meaningful impact. We offer flexibility, autonomy, and the chance to be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking legal team.

Joining Forest & Co means becoming part of a culture built on collaboration, respect, and integrity. We pride ourselves on delivering legal services that are not only effective but also compassionate, and we seek the same balance in how we work together as colleagues.

We believe in giving our team the space and support to do their best work. That means:

  • Challenging and meaningful legal work that has a real impact on people’s lives and businesses
  • A supportive team environment where collaboration and open communication are encouraged
  • Opportunities for professional growth, including training, mentoring, and career development
  • Autonomy and trust, balanced with guidance when it is needed
  • Recognition of your contributions, both formally and informally

At Forest & Co, inclusivity is at the heart of who we are. We actively welcome and encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, including those from groups traditionally underrepresented in the legal profession.

We are proud to foster a workplace where people feel valued and heard, regardless of their race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or socioeconomic background. We believe that diverse perspectives lead to better outcomes for our clients and a richer, more vibrant culture within our firm.

We are continually working to ensure that our recruitment, retention, and progression practices reflect our commitment to fairness and equal opportunity.

Investing in the next generation of legal professionals is a priority for us. Forest & Co offers training contracts and work placements designed to equip future solicitors with the experience, confidence, and guidance they need to succeed.

Our trainees and placement students are treated as valued members of the team from day one. You will gain exposure to real client work, benefit from structured supervision, and receive regular feedback and support. We welcome candidates preparing for the SQE and are happy to support their journey through qualification.

If you are ambitious, curious, and committed to making a difference through the law, we would love to hear from you.

We understand that everyone has different motivations, goals, and circumstances. That is why we aim to be flexible, responsive, and fair in what we offer to our team. Our benefits include:

  • Flexible and hybrid working arrangements
  • Support with continued professional development (CPD), qualifications, and accreditations
  • Competitive and transparent pay structures
  • Regular performance reviews and feedback
  • Access to mentoring and informal peer support
  • A positive, people-first working environment
  • Opportunities to shape the firm as we grow
