Paul Antoniou Talks Consultancy

Paul Antoniou took the leap into the Taylor Rose MW Consultancy Programme in August 2022.

On Paul's one year anniversary, as a 'Consultant Solicitor', I caught up with him to hear a bit more about his story and the impact it has had on his life.

🚀 How Consultancy Changed My Life 🚀

As a true Londoner, born and bred in this incredible city, I cannot help but feel a surge of pride and excitement each time I step out of City Thameslink. The awe-inspiring buildings, the bustling streets, and the vibrant atmosphere envelop me, reminding me why I fell in love with this metropolis from the very beginning.

Embracing consultancy has been a transformative journey, one that aligns perfectly with my passion for the law, an unwavering love for my work, and the desire for flexibility. Being unbound by traditional employee systems and mindsets, I relish the freedom to dedicate longer hours to my clients. As a 'work on the go chap,' accessibility to my clients is paramount, and consultancy allows me to be readily available whenever they need me. Working closely with families and handling private client matters during their most sensitive times has been incredibly rewarding. Knowing that my clients rely on me for support during challenging periods of their lives fuels my dedication even further.

Working at Taylor Rose, with our fantastic city presence, has been an absolute dream come true. Our offices, located near the iconic St Paul's Cathedral, buzz with energy and camaraderie. It's heartening to witness the office almost at full capacity, as the Taylor Rose family embraces the idea of spending more and more time together.
