Peerpoint by A&O Shearman
Peerpoint connects in-house legal teams with trusted interim legal support, wherever and whenever you need it. We start by understanding your unique resourcing needs, then match you with the best and brightest in the legal sector. Backed by A&O Shearman's global network and an agile approach, we deliver tailored solutions that go beyond simply filling a gap.
Legal consultants that make an impact
Need interim legal support? We’ll match you with the highest calibre of consultants, wherever you need them.
From Europe to the Middle East to Asia Pacific, we find the lawyer who’s the perfect fit for you. Flexible legal resourcing helps in many situations: managing major transactions or regulatory change projects, covering periods of leave or accessing specialist skill sets you don’t have in-house.
Backed by A&O Shearman’s know-how, we also connect you to legal resourcing in data science, technology and transformation, risk and compliance and project management, including fractional legal resources such as fractional general counsel.
With over a decade of experience as an flexible legal resourcing provider, we’ve built a deep understanding of what both our clients and our talent need. Our clients consistently praise the calibre of our consultants, our strategic collaboration and our superior client service; reasons we’ve been awarded a “Band One” ranking by Chambers in its global flexible legal staffing category every year since 2020.
The world’s leading financial institutions, multinational corporates, technology businesses and energy and renewables companies trust us to deliver remarkable outcomes. We can do the same for you.
Different by design
What makes Peerpoint different? It’s the calibre of our legal consultants, the strength of our A&O Shearman backing and how closely we tailor every match to your needs.
Exceptional,

When you're driving change, our Advanced Delivery & Solutions teams add end-to-end strategies combining resourcing with market-leading technology.

The result is more than a lawyer; it's an ongoing relationship and the backing that only comes with a top-tier global law firm.
Flexible, responsive legal resourcing
We know in-house teams face constant pressure to be leaner and more efficient. That’s why our solutions flex to your needs – in duration, working pattern or fee structure. Through our global panel of 400+ consultant lawyers, we’ll bring you the right level of seniority and specialism, and where the local talent supply is limited, we’ll help you access our overseas network.Driving inclusion in law
