We have state of the art cloud based servers. Our support staff are fully trained in monitoring of electronic files. They offer full support to all fixed staff in Manchester as well as our consultants. We have worked hard to develop a dedicated support section on our website and this is readily available to all.

We have all grown up with paper but we have made the transition to a paper free environment. We recognise the benefits that can come from working without paper.  You can too. We have cleared a huge amount of space at our Manchester office by replacing paper with secure digital files.  We have used that space to create gym facilities for our staff.

We encourage all our lawyers to shape their development and become leaders in their particular specialism within criminal law. We are early adopters of the SRA’s continuing competence regime and great emphasis is placed upon personal development. We have always maintained that our staff are our greatest asset. We have structured training in place for all which is tailored to meet individual requirements.

We have established Olliers Learning to provide a forum for our team to develop and enhance their knowledge and skills.  A key part of Olliers Learning is our online library which contains accessible resources for our team.

We offer support to our consultants that enables them to concentrate on fee earning and doing their job as lawyers while we take care of administration.  We want our consultants to be part of our team and not ‘add-ons’.  They can benefit from the firm’s reputation and expertise, training and support as well as all the freedoms that come with being in charge of their own time and their own workload.

Olliers has a dedicated team dealing with web design, social media and search engine optimisation.  We encourage all our lawyers to raise their individual profiles through web content, social media and so on. This is an area where we can really shape your career and future development.

We believe in equality and good service across the board.  We do not distinguish between our legal aid and private clients.  All deserve an expert service and they all receive one.

Our staff retention rates are excellent and 12 of our 20 Manchester solicitors trained with us. People stay at Olliers and we want this to apply equally to our consultants.
