CEO Chris Setford said: “We believe passionately in the message we have been promoting, that there is a better way of working for those in the legal industry.
“To have seen such a high number of terrific lawyers join Setfords in the past 12 months was reward enough for the efforts we have taken to promote the firm, but being shortlisted for this award really is the icing on the cake. We couldn’t be more delighted.”
CEO Guy Setford added: “We have worked with Calder PR on this campaign and we are thrilled with the result. Through day in the life blogs and other content, lawyers throughout the UK have been to able to learn about the great benefits of working as consultants, be that earning more money or enjoying a better work-life balance.
“Being finalists for this award certainly helps inspire us to continue to find innovative ways to communicate with lawyers about the Setfords way of working.”
