Nobody knows money in law like we do.

We are the financial education specialists in law. Our Financial Wellbeing in Law report is the most comprehensive picture of how people in law feel about money, and it shapes everything we teach.

In a profession where attention to detail and quality of work matter, that is a real problem.

Benefits aren't the same as wellbeing.

Many firms we work with already offer financial benefits. They come to us because those benefits aren't reaching the people who need them. As market leaders in financial education for law, we build the financial literacy, skills and knowledge people need to actually use them.

Built for law

Designed for the legal profession and matched to each stage of career.

Actionable

Delivered at the times that matter most, so people know exactly what to do next.

Human

Energetic, relatable sessions, because changing habits takes connection.

Independent

We have no products to sell. Just impartial financial education.

“Developing good financial health early on provides greater control, reduces stress, and places you in a stronger position to lead with confidence as your career develops.”

Case studies, brought to life.

How firms use Financial Foundations to help their people at the moments that matter.

Equal pay doesn’t mean an equal start

Clarion came to us through their social mobility agenda: talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Financial Foundations gave everyone the same practical grounding in money, whatever their starting point.

89%had done something differently with their money by the end of the programme

Clarion’s payroll team reported a marked increase in people taking proactive decisions about pension contributions, and about managing increased pay after annual review and bonus periods.

Focused on the job from day one

Osborne Clarke wanted to make sure money worries didn’t distract their apprentices and graduates from learning the job.

71%had done something differently with their money by the end of the programme

Confidence reading and understanding a payslip rose from 6.8 to 8.6 out of 10.

Setting people up for success from day one

Shoosmiths wanted their apprentices and trainees to start their careers with the money skills to build long-term financial resilience.

“Developing these skills early in our careers is an important step towards building long-term financial resilience.”

Why Wealthbrite?

We are the financial education specialists in law. Our own Financial Wellbeing in Law report is the most comprehensive picture of how people in law feel about money, and it shapes everything we teach. Firms including Osborne Clarke, Shoosmiths, Clarion, Farrer & Co, Macfarlanes and Akin trust us with their people, event organisers rate Carla 9.5 out of 10, and our work has won the Platinum Be The Ladder Award and Best Adult Financial Education.

What is employee financial wellbeing?

Employee financial wellbeing is how secure, confident and in control your people feel about money, today and in the future. It affects stress, focus and performance at work. Wealthbrite improves it through financial education built for the legal profession.

Why does financial literacy matter in law firms?

Legal careers are well paid and high pressure, but good pay does not bring financial confidence on its own. Our research shows many in law are vulnerable to financial shock, stressed about money and unsure about pensions and planning. Financial literacy training in the workplace helps people make better decisions, perform better and build resilience.

We already offer a financial benefits platform. Why would we need Wealthbrite?

Benefits are not the same as wellbeing. Many firms we work with already have financial benefits in place, but those benefits are not reaching the people who need them most. Our financial education gives people the confidence and knowledge to use the benefits you already offer.

Who are the courses for?

Our flagship programme, Financial Foundations, follows your people through every career stage: Day One for getting set up, The NQ jump and Senior Associate step-up for the years of building wealth, and Pipeline to Partner for the move to partnership.

Are you regulated to provide advice?

No. All our programmes are independent financial education and money guidance from experts who know their stuff.
