Powering the growth of local law firms nationally
Welcome to
The MAPD Group
MAPD stands for 'Making a Positive Difference' - at MAPD, we believe in a better way of doing business:
- We know that a successful business can be a fun business.
- We know that human to human interactions and connections make a positive difference...
- We know that potential can be found in all kinds of places.
- We passionately believe that law firms are uniquely placed to create 'MAPD Moments' for clients, whether they're in highly stressed or distressed situations, excited about a new project, or somewhere in between.
And we know that making a positive difference starts from the inside out ...
Our People
We do this through our people - MAPD people - our differentiators, empowering them to create outstanding Human to Human (H2H) interactions, enabled by technology and supported by strong infrastructure, culture and personal development opportunities.
We're all about trying to create an AWESOME journey for those who want to 'jump on the rocket', 'smash the rear view mirror', 'look to the future' and create an experience internally and externally not found in other law firms!
MAPD people are all different but fundamentally they all want to make a positive difference to and for others
Our philosophy
Our businesses are powered by MAPD and our MAPD way of thinking.
The MAPD Way balances people, client, quality and profit in equal measure.
- It is a privilege to help our people to grow and realise their potential.
- It is a privilege to be able to help clients.
- We are very careful with that privilege.
Who you are
We know one size doesn't fit all, we don't believe in change for change's sake and we know that the first rule of acquisitions is first do no harm.

Our Team

An hour in their company will never be wasted and will always be accompanied by laughter!
