We’re not doing anything clever. We’re just applying common sense to the legal market

The UK legal services market is valued at approximately £24bn pa. It is highly fragmented with few brands. It's going through a period of significant upheaval. Changes in regulation and customer expectation provide an opportunity for a more modern, flexible, and customer-centric approach to the provision of legal services.

That's why, after nearly two years of research and analysis, we created Riverview Law in May 2011. In creating Riverview Law we had all of the advantages of a new entrant. We had a blank piece of paper. No legacy technology systems, culture or people. No expensive offices and overheads. We were able to build our model from the customer up not from the law firm partner down. Traditionally, law firms look at their costs and work out how many billable hours (lawyer utilisation rates) are required to generate a profit. We started from a different point, the customer. We analysed what was important to small, medium and large businesses. We then set about building a different, cost-effective, service delivery model that combined people and technology appropriately. It's our ambition for Riverview to become synonymous with legal innovation and leadership. Our first steps in delivering this can be seen in the characteristics underpinning our various services:

However good our technology, management reporting and innovation is, we know it’s our people, and what they do, that makes the difference.

The key differentiator for what we do in Riverview Law is our culture. We feel more like an in-house legal team than a private practice law firm. We charge fixed prices so there are no targets around billable hours, it's all about quality, customer service and contract renewal. We spend a lot of time in the recruitment process making sure it's right for the candidate just as it's right for Riverview. We don't want someone to join us and find that it's not for them.

The types of people we are looking for:

Business Law Executives (Paralegal) Commercial You will be responsible for providing support and assistance on a full range of legal work, including research, advice and drafting.
