Clearly's Hall of Shame
It is worth noting that each of the lawyers listed below were employed by Addleshaw Goddard following their Letter before Claim in February 2023. They were a lot younger, better paid, better qualified and enjoy far superior mental capacity than their opponent an 85 year old Litigant in Person representing the Defendant and yet it's unforgivable that not one of them noticed Addleshaw Goddard was in abuse of process, behaved criminally including tampering with evidence, conspiracy to defraud, forgery and contempt of court.

Good office environment.
Pros - Good people in the team

Reviewed : 06 Apr 2026
High stress, little reward or recognition.
Pros - Good name to have on your CV for legal experience, exposure to technical work as you have a fair bit of responsibility from the start
Cons - Extremely high pressure and little training making the job very stressful, unrealistic targets, hierarchical culture, little reward or recognition for your work, very underpaid paralegals with absolutely no guarantee or encouragement of progression.

No sense of self worth!

Cons - People, hours, demands, rudeness.

Very unpleasant place to work.
Pros - Nice office, good equipment some of the IT co-workers are really great people
Cons - Bullying, finger-pointing and failure is entrenched in the entire culture of Business Services. Anybody with talent or ambition has left, leaving very little behind to bring about the changes required in the firm. People here are either very unhappy and looking to leave or serial under performers.

Addleshaw Goddard England Centric
Pros - Many of the team are great lawyers but

Disappointing experience in FS practice.

Addleshaw Goddard slightly toxic atmosphere

Addleshaw Goddard good Name, bad experience.
Pros - Having AG on your CV can open up a lot of doors in the industry. The Qualified Solicitors / Legal execs within the business are very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions
Cons - As a paralegal, your line manager is unqualified and rarely has a detailed enough knowledge of the work you undertake to provide you with relevant guidance. Paralegals are often used as mass admin for projects rather than given opportunities to gain knowledge.

Treat your staff with respect.
Pros - Flexible working Salaries are on par Opportunities are available
Cons - Very Risk adverse. Segregation between Legal Tech and IT - they need to work together not apart. The firms needs to allow IT devise a technical strategy that underpins the capabilities of the firm, not Partners controlling.

Would not recommend Addleshaw Goddard!
Pros - Good environment, Excellent offices, Good benefits (Healthcare, Gym, Pension)
Cons - Bullying is rife within the IT department with a finger pointing mentality. Minimal collaboration across teams with a focus on single "heroes" to deliver tasks or fix issues who are then continually publicly lauded.
Reviewed : 14 Apr 2023
Addleshaw Goddard not pleasant place to work.
Pros - Some genuinely interesting work if you're in the right place at the right time. Generally a nice bunch of co-workers
Cons - 18k is the starting salary and is the salary you will likely stay on regardless of performance or billable hours. Bonuses, not likely your friends in other industries are getting 10% bonuses and yearly pay rises.
