GR Law have been great, always happy to listen and bounce ideas off, their expertise making it so much easier to find what I was looking for. The Sydney team went above and beyond to help me find my perfect role.

K Matejic – Placed Candidate

GR Law is a recruitment firm that stands well above the rest.  Both Russell and James worked extremely hard for me, while being very supportive and offering great guidance.  I cannot speak highly enough about GR Law.

T Elmey – Placed Candidate

Russell it was great working with you - thank you for working with me to secure this fantastic role.  Your professionalism, commitment and personal touch are noted and I will have no hesitation in recommending your GR Law moving forward.

A Cameron – Placed Candidate

Just wanted to take this opportunity to not only wish you and your team a very happy and safe festive season, but to also thank you very much for all your support and guidance in seeking employment over the past few months. I have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone I know seeking new employment.

K Green – Candidate

I thought moving from Australia to the UK was a task. Then I was met with the joy of job hunting in London. I was overwhelmed by the number of recruiting agencies, job websites and more than anything else – the task of setting realistic expectations for myself, finding out what I was worth and what was out there. I moved to London because I wanted to work for a big, fast-paced company in a challenging role. I was keen also to move away from public sector marketing and business development into the private/legal sectors. I found this incredibly difficult. Then I met Neil Hagan at GR Law. He was in a word – fantastic! He was different to other recruiting agents because he listened to what I wanted and found it, rather than pigeon holing me. He always had time for me and even gave me a pep talk when I was thinking of settling for a job that wasn’t the perfect fit. Most of all, he found me a job that ticked all my boxes. I would highly recommend GR Law and in particular Neil Hagan to anyone out there looking for work in the legal sector in London, but especially to other internationals, for an easy transition into the UK workforce. A special shout out to all Aussies too… If you are looking for work in the legal sector, Neil Hagan at GR Law is your man.

Thanks for all your help on the work front. You were as I say, fantastic!! Sorry again for the delay on getting this to you.

A Docking – Placed Candidate

After months of interviews and rejection Russell Martin finally found a great position to suit me. The staff at GR Law are professional, friendly and know how to keep you motivated. Russell was always there to offer advice and always up for a friendly chat. I highly recommend GR Law to anyone looking to change their career.

L Muscat – Candidate

I had decided to look around to see what other employment opportunities were available for a legal secretary in Sydney. I called GR Law on a Thursday morning and had an interview arranged with James for lunchtime that day.

I was impressed as James and GR Law were very interested in finding the “right” position for me rather than just putting me in the first position they had available. I discussed a few roles with James during my interview and heard from him later that afternoon regarding an interview for Friday. I attended that initial interview on the Friday, had a second follow up interview with on

Monday and received my verbal offer of employment on the Tuesday. James and GR Law kept me to up to date on what was happening with my application. I would recommend GR Law to any of my friends or acquaintances that are seeking work in the legal industry. I am now happily in a position that I love which I found was the perfect role for me.

E Anderson – Placed Candidate

I have been absolutely delighted with GR Law! Not only did they send me on 2 interviews and have another 2 options for me, I also found my new job....all within a week of first meeting them! What a whirlwind! Nothing was ever a problem for them, no meeting too late, no phone call missed and they made me feel like the only client on their books, such was their amazing service! I could not be happier in my dealings with Russell, David and James and would not hesitate in putting my trust in them again if I need to in the future.

G McDougall – Placed Candidate

Russell is professional, friendly, and understands just what clients are looking for, helping them meet their needs quickly and effectively. With a sensitive and results-focused approach, he puts clients’ best interests first. As a candidate who had been searching for an appropriate position for more than a year, I was very pleased that within a few weeks Russell was able to place me in a great position offering the growth opportunities and environment I was seeking.

H Mana – Placed Candidate

My experience with Russell at GR Law was very positive right from the start. Within a matter of days Russell had 4 interviews lined up for me. Because of the information provided and the advice and guidance I received, I had a new permanent role secured within 2 weeks. The communication was great and overall I would recommend GR Law to anyone.

E Hall – Placed Candidate

Russell and the team at GR Law are an outstanding agency; after many bad experiences with other agencies I found them so refreshing – thoroughly professional, yet warm and friendly. They always match you with the right role and won’t send you off to just any position. Also if you turn down a role, they will continue to look out for other suitable roles and never just dump you like many other agencies, they continue to go in to bat for you and are constantly in touch. If they advertise a role, it is a position that actually exists and not a made up role to get numbers on their books. I cannot speak highly enough of GR Law!

K Bailey – Placed Candidate

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff at GR Law in the Sydney office and also in the London office. I first had the pleasure of meeting the staff in the Sydney office in 2004 when I made the daunting decision to pack up, leave all my family and friends and move to London. GR Law were fantastic and supported me the whole way through the process, interviews were arranged for the day after I arrived in London and within a week I had secured a permanent position with a firm with which I stayed for almost seven years.

Just recently when I finally made the decision it was time to return to Sydney I had no hesitation in contacting GR Law again to assist with finding the correct position for me. I met with Annabella in the London office to go through my options and then with Russell and David in the Sydney office and again within a week I was signing a new contract with one of Australia's top 5 law firms. I have now been in my new position for four weeks and Russell and David have been in touch to ensure that I am happy and satisfied with my decision.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the services of GR Law to any prospective jobseeker, their outstanding professionalism and efficiency make securing that ideal position within easy reach.

K Hill – Placed Candidate

I had almost completely given up hope of ever finding a new job when GR Law turned everything around for me entirely. Within less than a week, I was attending interviews at some of Sydney’s top law firms and within a month, I’d accepted my current position which I love.

Everyone I met from the team at GR Law was a pleasure to work with, but the majority of assistance in my case came from David Drew. David provided me with an amazing level of help and support and I thank him (and the others!) for all their work and for restoring my faith in recruiters. I would not hesitate to recommend this agency to anybody in search of employment within the legal industry.

E Clarke – Placed Candidate

I found David to be very enthusiastic in going about the service he provides candidates and always keeps you up-to-date with progress and feedback. David puts forth a good effort in trying to market candidates to appropriate client’s and has a very positive and professional approach in dealing with you. David is well informed and is a pleasure to deal with.

D Hollister – Placed Candidate

I was actively applying and interviewing for work for 14 months. I was so determined to get another job that I registered with 14 agencies and I went on 75 interviews before I landed the perfect job. In terms of agencies, GR Law was by far the best agency that I dealt with and they are the only ones that I would recommend to friends and family. They are extremely professional, precise, caring, down to earth and more importantly, they treat their candidates the same way they treat their paying clients - with honesty and professionalism. This is what makes GR Law stand out from their competitors and I look forward to dealing with them again in the future.

L D’Arcy – Placed Candidate

I was bored and restless after four years in my previous role. James placed me in an excellent, well paid in-house position within two weeks of looking. Three months later, I realised that the new role wasn't for me, and spoke to James. He had my CV back in circulation the next day, and I had seven interviews in the space of three weeks! I ultimately found a new role with a firm that was recruiting directly, but James and his colleagues were extremely supportive when I gave them the news. I'll definitely be returning to GR Law when it's time to look for a new job in the future--their communication and service to candidates is second to none

S Lord – Placed Candidate

From the minute I walked in the door the GR Law Team, in particular Laura Galvin, have been incredible. They were genuinely interested in finding the right position for me and would always go out of their way to make sure that I would be comfortable with the roles they would put me forward for. Their insight into the roles and companies was very in-depth which made the interview process much easier. I am very grateful for being able to work with Laura and I would recommend GR Law to anyone looking for a new position.

E Campbell – Placed Candidate

Just wanted to drop a line to say that my first 2.5 weeks have been great and I am settling in at Bird & Bird very well, the girls are really lovely and am enjoying working here. I also wanted to thank the team at GR Law for making my transition into the UK easy and an enjoyable process. I would recommend you guys to anyone.

M Mazza – Placed Candidate

After becoming discontent with the working environment I was in, I approached GR Law to initially see what else was out there. After my meeting with Laura Galvin I was sent approximately 8 job specifications that I could choose for GR Law to submit my application for consideration to. By the end of that day I had two interviews lined up and was successful after a second interview with one of the firms. The whole process took only one week. Laura and her team really took the time to consider what it was I wanted in my next role and only sent me job specifications that met those expectations and never pushed for me to consider roles that fell outside this scope. However, what was most impressive was the very approachable nature and attitude of all the staff at GR Law as well as their eagerness and willingness to help me in finding the perfect role. After becoming disillusioned with other Sydney job agencies GR Law really restored my faith in agencies and their ability to give their candidates what it is they really are after in their next role. At all times I was kept up to date with interview feedback and new roles either by phone or email on a daily basis. I would highly recommend GR Law to anybody I know and they will be the first (and only) agency I will contact in the future should the need arise. Thank you Laura and GR Law!

S Smith – Placed Candidate

It was a pleasure working with GR Law. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking employment. Their staff are professional, friendly and extremely efficient and committed in finding you the ideal role. Within the sometimes precarious world of job seeking, they provided me with a thorough and consistent approach and worked incredibly hard in placing me in a role most suited to my experience. I was always fully prepped and updated at every step of the way. They are a pleasure to work with and I have commented to many people how wonderful I think GR Law are and would have no hesitation in recommending them to other people

D Barry – Placed Candidate

I would like to thank GR Law for your unwavering commitment and hard work in assisting me to find a job.

I was tremendously impressed with our initial meeting. You not only put me at ease and made the whole process enjoyable, but you also managed to promptly organise an interview for the very next day.

I was impressed with GR Law's continued proactive attitude in relation to your efforts to locate a suitable job for me.

I would without hesitation use you again and recommend your services to anyone in search for a new job.

K Bellizzi – Placed Candidate

I have been a temp with GR Law since September of 2008 when I returned from overseas. I have worked with many agencies both here and abroad and have found GR Law to be the most reputable and reliable agency I have encountered, in fact, I now only ever use GR Law. I have been in constant work since signing with them, even with the recent economic slump. The position that I now hold part-time came from GR Law. I have enjoyed all of my temp placements as GR's clients are of the highest calibre too. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the team at GR Law to anyone looking for work within the Legal field.

N O'Sullivan – Placed Candidate

I was referred to GR Law by a friend. GR Law were very supportive and I felt they were really looking after my interests and this gave me a lot of confidence.

It was a very positive experience for me and I have recommended GR Law to two of my closest friends.

S Stewart – Placed Candidate

I have been temping for GR Law for the past 2 and a half years.

GR Law has given me some great temp assignments with Sydney's top law firms. I have had both long term and short term assignments and the Consultant's always check with me that I am happy in the assignment and that everything is going smoothly.

I cannot recommend GR Law highly enough. GR Law has really looked after me and always kept me busy with a variety of temp assignments. I really enjoy working for GR Law and cannot thank them enough for their candidate and client care.

M Latimer – GR Law Temp

I was very impressed with GR's strong advocacy for my recruitment, your team's dedication to ensuring that I was as prepared as I possibly could be for my interviews and your genuine commitment to ensuring that I was well presented to the employer.

Thanks again.
