You can become the best lawyer you can be at Freshfields.

Freshfields provides you with all of the infrastructure, resources and help you need to become the best lawyer you can be. That in itself is incredibly motivating but also places the responsibility on the individual to ensure they make the most of their talent.

I think Freshfields is genuinely fun.

I just signed a transaction earlier this week where we were working with our client for two weeks solid in meeting rooms off-site at the offices of another firm. It was an incredibly difficult and challenging time but throughout it all, our meeting rooms remained genuinely fun places to be with general good humour and the odd round of Nespresso golf. That’s a big part of why it’s good to work here – incredibly talented and serious people who don’t take themselves too seriously.

I’ve been advising on the distributed ledger technology bitcoin is based upon.

That means helping our clients, particularly those involved in the financial services market, look at how they might use blockchain to change the way value is transferred or the way securities are settled or cleared. Our focus on innovation positions the firm well to take on such cutting-edge work.
