ABOUT MICHAELA BADDELEY

I’m Michaela, and I specialise in helping family lawyers across the North West find the right roles that align with their career goals, values, and personal ambitions. At Realm, we believe that happy people drive successful businesses, and I’m passionate about making sure lawyers find a firm where they can truly thrive—whether that’s through career progression, financial growth, or a better work-life balance. By focusing exclusively on family law, I’ve built deep connections within the legal community and developed a real understanding of the market. My aim? To be the go-to recruiter in family law, known for being honest, knowledgeable, and completely committed to doing right by the lawyers and firms I work with. Whether you’re a family lawyer thinking about your next move or a law firm looking to grow, I’ll give you straight-talking, no-nonsense advice, backed by industry insight and a genuine desire to see people succeed. When I’m not connecting family lawyers with their perfect roles, you’ll find me exploring new places, testing out the latest makeup trends, or hunting down the best brunch spots.(Often bottomless brunch! 🥂) Let’s connect—whether you’re looking for a new role, growing your team, or just want to chat about the legal market, I’d love to hear from you. m••••••••@realmrecruit.com | 03•••••••06
