Ready for a Change?

You're in the right place.

Law Career Plus is dedicated to helping lawyers who want more from their careers.

I created Law Career Plus because I can't bear the thought of lawyers doing work they don't enjoy.

I'm big on personal and professional development and always striving to get the most from the working part of our lives.

Life is too short not to - you know this!

I'm a UK former lawyer and I've made a series of career pivots both within the law and leaving law altogether. 

As they say, I've been there, done that and got the t-shirt.

Now, I help others pivot their careers to work they love!

WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY

""Using the techniques and prompts Matt demonstrated during our sessions, I was able to identify my particular strengths and needs in terms of potential careers and ultimately found the area that I wanted to move into. I am now looking forward to starting a new job in a few months' time and am hugely grateful to Matt for giving me the tools and helping me find the confidence to get me to this position."

 

KATIE

Commercial Lawyer (Career Change)

"If you want a coach that will tell you what to do and what to think then Matt's style will not suit. His strength is in giving you the space and direction to answer your questions for yourself.
After only 3 sessions I had a newfound enthusiasm and a real sense of direction. Soon after our last session I was offered a fantastic job opportunity, something I would not have thought possible before I started the coaching."
