Client Partners
Are You a Rainmaker?
Whilst most of the firm’s clients are won and managed by our commercially-focused Client Directors, under the direction of our Senior Partner, we also have a team of Client Partners who manage their own portfolio of clients within DJB.
Client Partners have access to all of the resources and facilities of DJB, including our pool of core solicitors, enabling them to manage their own portfolio of clients within DJB’s established brand.
With a team of highly experienced solicitors, recruited from leading firms and senior in-house roles, our Client Partners are assured that all work produced by our solicitors is of the highest quality. Client Partners can also rely on the full support of DJB’s administrative teams so they can focus on their clients, their legal work and their business development activities.
This includes dedicated Business Managers who work with you to make your business development as easy as possible.

Richard Holmes, Client Partner
“Being a Client Partner at DJB allows me to manage my own portfolio of clients with a high degree of autonomy. I also receive excellent support from DJB. For example, I can rely on their Core Solicitors if I am working on a particularly large project or if one of my client’s requires advise on an area of specialism outside of my expertise. DJB has also been a fantastic support when I am trying to bring new clients in. This has included pitch and proposal writing support. The firm’s Senior Partner also recently joined me on a presentation to a client.
DJB has enabled me to continue my practice working with excellent clients and undertaking a wide range of projects from small transactions through to major acquisitions of shopping centres and other investments. It is great being part of a team of lawyers who are of high standing and are specialists at what they do. We complement each other and it is helpful to be able to bounce ideas off colleagues. Whenever I have led a team on a major deal I can always be confident that the lawyers and support are all of high standard and co-ordinating them is easy. The remote locations of all the lawyers is no barrier whatsoever to our efficiency and with a range of offices available I can always meet up with colleagues for a change. On a personal level it is a joy not to have to join partners meetings or undertake a plethora of non-chargeable administration work. All this is taken care of for me which is wonderful.”
