Rachael is a diamond and very intelligent. She has a lovely style and an efficient, commercial & more collaborative approach to advising clients. It's also reassuring to know that Rachael is a former litigator so you know you are getting all-round excellent commercially sound advice. Highly recommended!

Having negotiated against Alice personally, we were confident of her legal skills and commercial acumen. They immediately submersed themselves into our business, acting as an extension of our legal team. They worked incredibly hard, are friendly, approachable and above all could always be counted on to retain a sense of humour.”

Jen Kitson, GC, BlueYonder

Rachael is commercially focussed, and her investment in taking the time to get to know our business means she takes a pragmatic, human-centric approach to negotiations. She proactively gets her head around the particular priorities and constraints on each engagement, meaning she hits the ground running adding value while being able to move at pace.

“Plume is anything but your traditional law firm. We found the lawyers to not only be experts in their fields, but dedicated to understanding our business, which is so important to finding innovative solutions to the problems that we bring to them. Every single person I’ve met at Plume has been a delight to work with, and that just makes all the difference. I really do feel in very good hands working with Plume.”

Tara Haig, GC, Multiverse

It’s just the entire way that Plume does business. I’ve never felt forgotten, I’ve never felt that someone else is too important, everyone’s so nice and everyone puts in 100% of the effort. Working with Plume is a real pleasure.

Miguel Holloway, Chief of Staff, Oxford Medical Simulation

Our favourite thing about working with Plume is it doesn’t feel like we’re working with a law firm but rather an extension of our own team. The lawyers have become so embedded in our business, so commercially focussed and so tuned to our risk appetite and way of working

Francesca Porter, General Counsel, Onfindo

The best thing about working with the Employment team is the prompt guidance and support they have given with sensitive and complex issues. They offer professional and diligent advice as well as being incredibly genuine and encouraging. It is reassuring to know they are on hand to help at all times.

Everyone internally has been incredibly impressed with your work and I'm sure we will want to continue working together long-term.

Quickly understood my requirements, carried out a thorough review of the facts and produced a user-friendly reference document tailored to my business which demonstrated a strong grasp of the commercials. Take on was pain-free and everyone was friendly and responsive. Would recommend.

They're doing amazing stuff on social media and standing out from the crowd. This is a gold standard in disruption.

You are continuing to shape the legal industry to be more creative, compassionate, and (most significantly) human. Keep breaking down barriers - your reach is further than you may realize 🦩

The team have come on board to support MyTutor, a fast growing EdTech business which previously had no in-house legal resource. The team have made a hugely positive difference in a short space of time and we feel incredibly supported by the team, who offer a commercial, low fuss and highly responsive service

Manisha Chana, CFO, MyTutor

Plume are a wonderful, professional and caring law firm. The communication and attention to detail we received by them in dealing with our case was brilliant. I will definitely be using them again for future needs.

Frances Lucraft, CEO/founder, Grace and Green

The team provided excellent leadership and support throughout our funding process. In particular, they provided comprehensive ownership and management of the close process for AccelerComm, providing excellent, professional guidance from start to finish and enabling AccelerComm to focus on growing core business growth

Are you an in-house lawyer? We've got just the place for you.

We've created a community of over 180 in-house lawyers to provide a space to learn, share ideas and network. We hold regular interactive sessions on topics spanning issues such as thorny legal problems all the way to how to use LinkedIn as a lawyer.  There really is something for everyone, and we'd love you to join!

Powered by #HumanLawyers

There’s a reason we trade marked #HumanLawyers. We believe that the future of revolutionary legal services rests with its people. That’s why you’re more likely to see our lawyers in a hoodie, than a three-piece suit. We park the ego, prioritise the work, and break the barriers between law and the people it serves.
