Peerpoint by A&O Shearman

“Peerpoint has been instrumental in charting a new path for my career, one I couldn't have navigated alone. The team's support has been pivotal. It allowed me to explore and develop my skills in a holistic manner, ensuring I was not just ready for the next opportunity but also the right fit for it. My experience working with a Peerpoint client has further solidified my belief in the unique value Peerpoint consultants bring. We're recognised for our cultural fit, eagerness, and the quality we deliver, mirroring the A&O Shearman brand's excellence.”

“Peerpoint has top-quality lawyers with a wealth of experience in various industries, and they are able to bring this experience to the stakeholders that they support on behalf of my team. Their lawyers have great interpersonal skills, work well with business teams and demanding stakeholders, can manage diverse and demanding workloads, and bring a practical and pragmatic approach to their legal support.”

“The Peerpoint team has been really helpful. They’re quick to offer support whenever I’ve needed it, including offering me an A&O Shearman partner contact. I’ve also been impressed by how carefully they’ve sought to match me with the right opportunities. They know I’m fascinated by technology, so I’ve been offered quite a few exciting assignments with a tech slant – anything from cryptocurrency to enterprise AI, which is obviously right up my street. I’d recommend consulting to anyone, it’s allowed me to add more variety to my career while rebalancing my working life."

“Peerpoint has an excellent network of experienced lawyers with unique skillsets, which comes in very handy when you are confronted with unique challenges and you need that extra bench strength for a period of time. The Peerpoint lawyers are responsive, professional and add significant value to our practice.”

“Consulting has provided me with a great degree of autonomy over both the type of mandates I take on and how I structure my working day. I typically focus on one or two transactions at a time that I will lead throughout the lifecycle of the deal, with support from the junior lawyers I supervise. This approach enables me to select assignments that align closely with my expertise and on which I can add the greatest value. Consulting with Peerpoint has proven to be the best decision for me and my career and for my children."

“Its consultants are generally highly experienced and subject matter experts in their fields; it’s the equivalent of having magic circle service on tap. The consultants generally require little supervision and, as many have in-house experience, the learning time is usually short.”
