Created by lawyers, for lawyers.

You became a lawyer to practise law, and we built the infrastructure so you can do just that. A built-in referral network of lawyers, a team that handles everything that isn’t law, and an address your clients already trust.

“You can knock on someone’s door, get a second opinion, chat about a matter. You feel like you’re in a bigger firm without being in a big firm.”
Helena Mrmos
Principal Lawyer, Mozaik Lawyers
“It feels like a real professional environment, and when I bring my clients here, that’s what they see.”
Laura Blandthorn
Principal Lawyer, Solidarity Solicitors
“I can pop over to file, or reception will file it for me. Handy, being the only person in my firm.”
Chelsea Baker
Principal Lawyer, Baker Hastings Lawyers
“When I started out on my own, I needed somewhere that had everything set up so I could just focus on my clients. Clarence gave me that, reception, offices, right near the courts. As my team’s grown, they’ve grown with me. I’ve gone from one office to four, and it’s all just worked.”

Member story

Helena went out on her own with a three-month-old.

“I decided to open my own firm. She was three months old, and I went out on my own. I’ve got nothing to lose. Only gain.”
