Her clients range from high street and boutique firms to global brands, as well as law firm suppliers and support facilities.  

Gail held pivotal law firm management roles before she became a leading law firm consultant. 

Unique Opportunity

As a regulated profession, UK lawyers have a unique, yet often under utilised opportunity to reduce stress and improve performance, yet it is often overlooked.  

Gail delivers not just the strategic "what to do" but also dives deep into the precise actions of "how to".  The results are delivered with pinpoint accuracy based on changing the hearts and minds of people, performance and profit.  

 Often people or performance projects alleviate current symptoms, but do not address the root cause.  Gail works at a root cause level for lasting people performance and profit improvement.  


Since the restructuring and despite not having managed to hire the people we wanted to the … team in the last quarter of the financial year shot to the top performing slot…

Thanks for your help with making this happen.

Partner Mentoring

Forward-thinking law firms relish the opportunity to work with Gail, taping in to her vast experience of people, performance and profit within the legal and professional services sectors.  

Turning burdonsome tasks into opportunities for client attraction, brand enhancement, reputation and competitive edge. 



Mental Health & Wellbeing 

The majority of lawyers are experiencing daily levels of stress which they feel is detrimental to their wellbeing.  However, many do not disclose their feelings for fear of stigma, resulting in career, financial or reputational consequences. 

Whilst many firms do have mental health policies and wellbeing training or even signposting to external support in place, the problem continues to grow.

There is now a strong case for profession-wide change.  

Gail's approach is pre-emptive, operationally based and has been proven to improve mental health, productivity, performance and of course client satisfaction.
