The Legal Lounge is back at the Recruitment Agency Expo, 8-9 October 2025 at the NEC Birmingham, with its boldest theme yet — 'Recruitment’s Most Wanted'.
Step into a crime-scene-inspired space exposing the industry’s biggest offenders: The Backdoor Bandit, The Ghoster, and The Verbal Villain. These are the shady client behaviours that drain revenue and erode trust — and the Legal Lounge will show you exactly how to deal with them.

Run in association with RecLaw, the Legal Lounge offers free, expert 1:1 legal advice tailored to recruitment agencies. Whether you want to lock down your terms, chase unpaid invoices, or bulletproof your processes, the UK’s leading recruitment-specialist solicitors will be on hand to help.
Barry Cullen, Partner at RecLaw, says: With over 20 years in the recruitment industry, I’ve seen how damaging these behaviours can be to agencies of all sizes. The Legal Lounge is about giving recruiters the tools and knowledge to fight back, protect their revenue, and focus on growth.
Nav Mann, Show Organiser, adds: The Legal Lounge is one of the most valuable features at the Expo. It’s practical, hands-on, and deals directly with the real-world issues recruiters face daily. Visitors walk away with advice they can implement immediately.
