Why Consider APS Legal & Associates as a Career

Becoming a Licensed Legal Consultant will not suit everyone, therefore serious consideration must be taken by both parties before being accepted as a representative of our company. We make sure we have the right Associates within our business to service the professional introducers with which we believe and encourage all of our Associates to build the foundations of their business on. Honesty and integrity are paramount to our company and in turn your success in this field will develop through looking after your clients and developing a strong customer base. Professional referrals are those with which all of our Associates success thrives upon, rather than that of call centre or mail shot generated leads that other competitors may use within this market place.

It is for these very reasons that all of our Associates are truly handpicked to meet the company's criteria.

Attributes Required

The company operates a strict anti-sales policy. Our company ethos and that of our professional introducers does not fit the attributes associated with a typical sales person. Therefore those with a 'hard sell' approach are not encouraged to apply.

Applicants we consider must show a strong degree of professionalism, application, a keen interest in legal services and above all an ethical orientation. We specialise in professional, efficient & cost effective legal services to both the public and financial services companies around the U.K including:

• Protective Property Trusts
• Inheritance Tax Planning
• Estate Planning Reports
• All Types Of Professional Single & Mirror Wills
• Revocable Life Interests

Testimonials

"Having worked for 14 years with a national bank, the majority of the time in an estate planning role, I felt it was time to put my hard work towards building my own business. I approached a number of estate planning companies and found APS Legal & Associates to be by far the most professional and friendly company. Their commitment to their Associates is shown with their first class training and support. Their professionalism and strong corporate image is backed up with the partnership with SimplyBiz plc and the Paradigm group. I still work very hard, but it is now for me rather than the Bank."
Wayne Garnett. Licensed Associate. Leeds, North Yorkshire

"After going through a difficult year personally I decided I needed a bit of a career change. I worked as a lawyer previously and after much research into how I could work for myself I came across APS Legal & Associates. Wills and Estate Planning is a different area of law for me but the training and support from the APS Legal & Associates team is second to none. I also met a number of other successful qualified Associates, who didn't have any legal background before joining the company, which is testament to the quality of training and support which APS Legal & Associate provide. There is always someone at the end of the phone to answer any questions and thanks to them my business is growing and I can work when it suits me giving me more time to spend with my family."
