FRESH UNITY
Governable early-career legal development
FRESH UNITY
Clear evidence. Confident oversight.
Fresh Unity enables law firms to structure, evidence, and oversee early-career legal development.
It brings together QWE recording, competence evidence, supervisory oversight, and firm-specific frameworks into one coherent platform — designed for L&D teams, Training Principals, and compliance stakeholders.
THE REALITY FOR L&D TEAMS
Early-career development is complex — and increasingly exposed.
Law firms are expected to demonstrate that early-career lawyers are developing appropriately, ethically, and in line with regulatory expectations.
In practice, many firms face:
- Fragmented training records across systems
- QWE evidence that is hard to review and harder to prove
- Inconsistent supervision and sign-off processes
- Limited visibility across cohorts, seats, and jurisdictions
- Significant time pressure on L&D teams and supervisors
The challenge is not commitment.
It is structure, evidence, and control.
WHAT FRESH UNITY PROVIDES
One system. Three essential capabilities.
Fresh Unity is designed as governance infrastructure.
It provides law firms with:
Structure
A single, coherent framework for organising early-career development — across placements, cohorts, practice areas, and jurisdictions.
Evidence
Reliable, consistent records of experience, competence, reflection, and sign-off — aligned to regulatory standards and firm expectations.
Control
Clear oversight for L&D teams and supervisors, with real-time visibility, reporting, and the ability to intervene early.
Together, these capabilities turn early-career development into something that is manageable, defensible, and scalable.
QWE & REGULATORY CONFIDENCE
A QWE journal is not just a record. It is an evidence obligation.
Qualifying Work Experience sits at the centre of the SQE route — and with it comes a responsibility to evidence development appropriately.
Fresh Unity supports firms by:
- Structuring QWE records across placements and supervisors
- Aligning entries to the Statement of Solicitor Competence
- Supporting reflection, progression tracking, and sign-off
- Producing clear, auditable reports for trainees and firms
QWE is treated not as an administrative task, but as a professional record — built to withstand scrutiny.
HOW THE PLATFORM WORKS
One shared system. Different users. Complete oversight.
Fresh Unity operates as a single, shared data environment.
- L&D teams have immediate visibility.
- Supervisors have simple and speedy sign off.
- Trainees can easily maintain their records within a structured framework
- Compliance and risk teams have access to reliable evidence
Everyone works from the same information — with role-appropriate access and responsibility, removing duplication, reducing risk and underpinning confidence.
