Will I Receive Leads as a Consultant Solicitor?

One of the most common questions from solicitors considering the move to consultancy is ‘will I receive leads?’ The good news is yes: at Setfords, you won’t be starting from scratch. 

Business Development Support at Setfords 

Our dedicated business development team generates over 25% of the firm’s business, equal to millions of pounds worth of work each year covering the vast majority of practice areas. That’s a significant pipeline, and as a Setfords consultant, you benefit from it. 

That said, it’s important to be straightforward about how this works. You need to be comfortable bringing in your own work and cannot rely solely on leads from the business development team. Consultancy rewards solicitors who are proactive about growing their practice. 

Support When You Need It Most 

Where Setfords really steps up is at the start of your journey with us. We work especially hard to support new consultants during that early period, providing leads, confidence and peace of mind as you find your feet. 

Over time, as your practice grows, you’ll have both your own client base and the ongoing support of the business development team behind you.
