Why be a Peerpoint consultant?

We only take you on when we see a demand for your particular expertise, making sure there is a good chance we can provide you with work on an on-going basis.

We cannot guarantee work but we are every bit as invested in moving your career forward as you are.-
Flexibility of consulting
The benefits of legal consulting are wide ranging.

You might want more control over your time, to be able to balance professional and personal ambitions such as family responsibilities, a business idea, studies or hobbies.

Legal consulting gives you the flexibility to remain in the workforce without putting the rest of life on hold.

  • You might want more choice and control over, or variety in, your work. Legal consulting enables informed decisionmaking about the future direction of your career, offering you the opportunity to work with different clients, sectors, and teams (including within Allen & Overy in some cases). It also offers flexibility and options, including the right to accept or decline potential placements or assignments.
    Supporting you and your career development

When you join our panel, you'll receive the full support of our dedicated legal consultant management team, but that's not all.

Throughout the period of your assignment, you'll also have access to a huge suite of A&O resources, including:

  • An A&O partner or senior lawyer contact
  • A&O professional support lawyers and knowledge resources
  • Bespoke Peerpoint support including: individualised coaching, exclusive events designed to meet your training and networking needs, a specialised consultant development programme on transition management, mindset and business planning and specialised CV/marketing document training
  • Further training: Our consultants are invited to attend some of A&O's legal training and also have access to A&O's IT training courses
  • Client newsletters and seminars
  • Invitations to A&O networks, the A&O mentoring programme and pro bono opportunities


As a Peerpoint legal consultant, you're never on your own; instead, you're part of a community of like-minded lawyers who have all chosen the self-directed route, who are keen to share their experiences and learn from one another.
