Easy, effective resourcing solutions for in-house legal teams

 

In-house legal teams are under constant pressure. Work keeps coming and headcount often doesn’t keep up. When workload increases or specialist expertise is needed, legal teams need lawyers who quickly make a difference.

Front Foot provides experienced in-house lawyers on secondment who take work off your desk from day one. Practical, commercially-minded lawyers who understand how to get things done in-house.

Our lawyers are available under two models

Fixed term secondment

Lawyers embedded in-house for defined periods, supporting BAU and projects with continuity.

Hourly rates

Flexible capacity on call.

 

When teams engage us

Workload spikes: Immediate support is required.

Growth: Business growth has outpaced headcount.

Hiring freeze: Permanent headcount is needed but can’t be added.

Gap in the team: Due to staff leave, turnover, or while recruiting a permanent hire.

Specialist expertise: The team lacks subject matter expertise.

Why Front Foot?
