Rollonfriday


RollOnFriday is a British website designed for and used by those involved in the legal profession, from law students to qualified solicitors and barristers including Queen's Counsel. Its readership includes journalists and others from outside the profession, as well as a large number of practising lawyers.

History and content

The site was established in 2000 by Matthew Rhodes and Piers Warburton. The two met while solicitors at the London law firm Ashurst. Warburton said at the time that the site was intended to be 'young, irreverent and a bit cheeky'.
From launch, the site provided weekly news stories, detailed information on individual law firms - including the salaries they pay - and weekly features such as 'glamorous solicitor' showcasing some of the more interesting looking of the world's lawyers.
In 2001, the website launched the discussion board and more recently has developed a jobs database and other recruitment facilities. Over the years the site has grown in popularity and is now an established part of the legal market. Over 50 of the UK's leading law firms use it as a means of advertising and make use of its graduate and lateral recruitment databases: Fast Track and Make Me An Offer.
The website had a major revamp at the end of May 2009 and another in 2018.
