The exact percentage depends on your seniority and practice area. For context: if you bill £200k annually at a 90% collection rate (£180k collected), you’d take home **£135k-£153k**. Payments are made **within 7 days** of client payment clearing. There are no hidden deductions, clawbacks, or complex profit-sharing calculations. What you see is what you get. **Yes.** Nexa Law Limited is fully regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA No. 1234567). We maintain **Professional Indemnity Insurance covering up to £10 million** per claim, which protects both you and your clients. We’re also an **official LEAP partner**, and our compliance team conducts regular audits to ensure we meet all regulatory obligations. You can verify our SRA registration at [sra.org.uk/register](https://sra.org.uk/register). You maintain **full ownership of your client relationships** and have complete autonomy over how you present yourself. You can operate under your own brand name (e.g., “Smith Legal Services”) or use the Nexa brand – the choice is yours. Your brand appears on all client-facing materials, and you control client selection, case strategy, and pricing. If you ever leave Nexa, **your clients remain yours**. Most lawyers are operational **within 2-4 weeks**. The process includes: - **Initial call and application review** (1-3 days) - **Founder meeting and approval** (3-5 days) - **DBS check and compliance onboarding** (7-10 days) - **IT setup** including your Nexa laptop and LEAP software access (2-3 days) You can begin opening matters and billing clients immediately after onboarding is complete. Some consultants bring existing clients and start earning in week one. **Zero upfront costs.** Nexa provides everything you need at no charge: - Your laptop - LEAP practice management software (worth £3,000+/year) - Professional indemnity insurance - SRA regulation and compliance support - Secure email and IT infrastructure - Telephone system with your own number - Administrative and back-office support There are **no desk fees, no software subscriptions, no monthly minimums, and no clawback provisions**.

That said, we evaluate each application individually. If you have strong client relationships, a viable business plan, and the capability to generate **£80k+ in annual billings**, we’d encourage you to apply regardless of PQE. We’ve successfully onboarded everyone from 8-year PQE specialists to 20+ year partners. ## The Nexa Collective From welcoming the newest consultant lawyers, to deep dives into the shifting legal landscape & firm-wide milestones, this is the heartbeat of the Nexa community.
