Recent placements

Some examples of our previous assignments include:

  • A family law practice looking to merge with a like-minded firm, where Okapi introduced the two parties and assisted in negotiations throughout the merger.

 

  • ​A senior family solicitor with a strong local firm background was considering a move to into a regional firm. We introduced them to a firm which allowed them to work on their on terms from a larger platform.​

  • A private client solicitor in a large firm who felt their level of face-to-face client contact was unsatisfactory. We very discreetly introduced the candidate to a competitor firm.
