What are the locum rates of pay for a solicitor or lawyer?

This is a difficult question to answer but we a produce a monthly guide which you can access by clicking here.

The hourly or daily rate is usually a matter of negotiation between the parties although we very often specify an hourly rate based on discussions with our client before an introduction is made.

A lot of locums have an hourly rate they use to start negotiations and this tends to vary according to the length of an assignment. Longer assignments can sometimes attract lower hourly rates but not always.

Rates of pay can depend on the time of year, level of demand, availability of locums and the location of the assignment.

Long term locum placement

Can I say that I have enjoyed working with Interim Lawyers and Ten Percent Legal over the last couple of years, your no nonsense, keep it simple approach is such a refreshing change from other agencies I have used.

No Nonsense Recruitment

I have recommended you and said you were the agent to approach. I hope that was the correct procedure. Somebody has to say how valued you are by small firms.

Recommendation

For locums we use Jonathan Fagan at Interim Lawyers. He’s a nice, helpful guy and his fees aren’t too bad (for an agent!)

I was a bit apprehensive at first when you initially emailed me as I thought this would be another generic email and I have unfortunately previously had some poor experiences with recruiters. That is not to say that all recruiters out there are the same but I can honestly say WITHOUT A DOUBT you have been the most pleasant recruiter I have dealt with; very efficient and found me the ideal role very quickly. This is testament to your capabilities and I am deeply grateful for this opportunity. Thank you so much once again for your efforts Emma.
