Legal Network London: working better together

Legal Network London is a free referral and support network exclusively for law firms. We have assisted hundreds of law firms to improve their client retention and increase their revenue via our exclusive network. We operate our network in Wales and London. Our members in London are a mix of niche city practices and large full service law firms. We support our niche members where their client’s legal work falls outside of their remit. For our larger full service members, we assist them where the work falls below their financial parameters. We can also assist where there are conflicts of interest or capacity issues.

We offer a strict non-poaching commitment ensuring that we do not cross sell our services to your client and only act for the matter referred to us. We want to ensure that your client remains your client. In return for passing your client to us, we offer to share our fees with you, which can be up to 10% of all paid base costs provided you have disclosed this
