Career Coaching for
Lawyers
Ready to unlock your full potential & take control of your legal career?
I help lawyers like you cut through your second-guessing, get clear on what you want (and why) and move forward with a clear career strategy.
Whether you want a new role, a promotion, or to make your mark in a new job, I’ll help you create the clarity and confidence to succeed.
HOW i CAN HELP:
Career Strategy Planning
For lawyers who need clarity before making their next move.
We step back, assess your options, and cut through the noise.
You leave with a clear direction, priorities and next steps.
Ideal if you’re at a crossroads or facing a key career decision.
Personalised Coaching
For lawyers who want structured support to move forward with confidence.
We refine your strategy, strengthen your positioning and build momentum.
This is about influence, credibility, and long-term progression, not quick fixes.
Best suited if you’re serious about change and ready to commit.
Self-Study Resources
For lawyers who prefer to work independently, in their own time, practical courses focused on positioning, confidence and career progression.
Clear frameworks, exercises, and guidance without 1:1 coaching.
A flexible way to develop key skills and move forward at your own pace.
90-minute 1:1 Strategy Sessions
3-month 1:1 Coaching Programme
