What our legal staff think
“I have genuinely been really impressed with the company and its values, and am really pleased I joined the firm.
It was a bizarre time (Covid-19) to be looking for and starting a new job, and I think the whole process was made really easy for me. The communication from the firm prior to starting was fantastic and since joining, everyone has gone above and beyond to welcome me to the firm.”
– Emily Williamson | Associate
“During the recruitment process, you spoke very fondly of the firm. Unfortunately, there are some firms that say things about how marvellous they are just to fill a role, but I can honestly say everything that you said about Barcan and Kirby was true. This is a really lovely and supportive firm to work in.”
– Terrie Ross | Associate
“I joined as a Paralegal, successfully applied for and completed the training contract, and have now achieved a newly qualified role. Each time I have interviewed at Barcan and Kirby, I have felt at ease (following the initial interview nerves). I guess that’s why I keep doing it! It’s refreshing to feel valued at work and supported in progression.”
– Laura Brimson | Solicitor
“I am very happy that I made the move to Barcan and Kirby! I’m really enjoying the varied workload, the culture of the firm and getting to know my teammates, who are all incredibly helpful, supportive and down to earth. The senior staff are all very approachable and I am confident I am at the perfect firm to continue my learning and development.”
Regarding the recruitment and induction process, everything was excellent. The induction was thorough and I felt prepared for my first day.”
