Rix & Kay aims to make law easy for its clients, and when the pandemic started it made home-working as easy as possible for its staff.
A questionnaire was sent to all colleagues early in lockdown asking for feedback on operating remotely, including comments on resources and stresses, and the firm continuously updated the team about its activities via the intranet and Yammer. The managing partner provided email updates on significant changes in government guidance and legislation.
Microsoft Teams was adopted for use throughout the business for both work and social activities, including departmental meetings, quarterly check-ins and quiz nights.
Rix & Kay is one of the largest law firms in southeast England, with offices in Ashford, Brighton and Hove, Seaford, Sevenoaks and Uckfield. Staff provide a full range of legal services for business owners, entrepreneurs and individuals.
The firm aims to be the legal employer of choice in the southeast and to be a successful growing business. A group was set up early last year to identify and deliver on a five-year action plan, known as Project 2025. The group includes employees from across the firm's locations and varying levels of seniority.
Rix & Kay has a long history of engagement with charitable and community organisations, as legal adviser and supporter. Many of these organisations, particularly sports clubs, saw their revenues affected by the pandemic, but the firm made a decision to continue its support.
I have confidence in the leadership skills of the senior management team
The senior leadership team sent a hamper of wine and chocolates to every member of the team at the end of last summer to recognise their hard work and ongoing commitment during a difficult time. The gift proved a perfect boost for morale.
The experience I gain from this job is valuable for my future
Rix & Kay helps staff to develop their skills and experience in a variety of ways, including professional qualification sponsorships and leadership development. The firm has provided sponsorships for team members gained qualifications from the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives and the Chartered Institute of Marketing.
My organisation encourages charitable activities
Rix & Kay has planted trees and protected more than 100 acres of rainforest as part of the Plant One Protect One scheme operated by sustainable stationery firm Red-Inc. The firm is also encouraging staff to switch from paper-based records to electronic case management.
At least 40% of senior managers are women.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
