FAQs
We can offer your firm a platform to help deal with increasing cost pressures and client demands. By using our flexible lawyers you can reduce fixed overheads and deliver work more profitably.
All ALMA lawyers have a minimum of 3 years’ PQE experience at City or large national firms. We have stringent quality control procedures to ensure quality and consistency of service is maintained.
We enter into confidentiality undertakings with our partner firms and consistently monitor any potential legal or commercial conflicts that may arise. All ALMA lawyers are bound by their professional duties in relation to conflicts.
ALMA’s lawyers work in home based offices using the latest IT and communications systems. Our lawyers are available for meetings and could even work on placement in your offices if appropriate.
In line with market practice, all work carried out by ALMA lawyers is covered by the instructing firm’s professional indemnity insurance.
We work on fixed, transparent hourly rates. By using ALMA our partner law firms have found they are able to deliver transactions up to 25% more profitably than by using the internal team alone. We are also happy to discuss alternative pricing structures with you if required.
We focus on developing long term strategic partnerships with key law firm clients rather than working with a large number of firms. By working with a smaller number of firms we can get to know our clients’ businesses and provide tailored resourcing solutions.
ALMA enters into an umbrella agreement with our partner firms. All ALMA lawyers are self-employed and contract with ALMA on a freelance basis.
No. ALMA is a specialist resourcing business. ALMA does not offer services direct to clients or the public and is not an SRA authorised law firm.
