Job description

Overview

Care Solicitor | Tier 1, Legal 500 Team | Liverpool

Are you a dedicated care solicitor who is looking to be part of a forward-thinking and modern team? If so, this opportunity is for you.

The Firm

This prestigious firm is headed up by one of the country's most experienced and well-respected family law specialists. The practice has built an enviable reputation in the market and is the go-to firm not just for high-net-worth matrimonial work but for complex children and care work, too. They are one of the only firms in the area to specialise in all aspects of family work. Collaborative working is a big part of the culture at this practice, with seniors in the team working directly with junior lawyers to create a strong learning environment. Their people are technically advanced, and career progression is encouraged through networking and building Guardian relationships. The managing partner personally maps out each persons goals on a quarterly basis as part of a team effort.

The Role

The firm is now seeking a Care Solicitor to join their Liverpool office.

• Team: You will join a wider team in the North-West, including multiple Partners and Senior Associates — highly experienced people to support you
• Reason for hire: Expansion, with lots of work coming into the team and recent expansion into Liverpool
• Culture: Forward-thinking, collaborative and supportive — progress whilst playing to your own strengths
• The Work: You will work on a caseload of care matters whilst building your Guardian relationships further

Why This Role Stands Out

• Visibility in the market: This firm is well-known with established Guardian relationships and plenty of work coming in
• Career progression: A clear route to Senior Associateship and beyond due to the work and development support on offer
• Flexibility: Hybrid working with high-quality work and career progression

What The Team Is Looking For

• A care solicitor with 3+ PQE
• Experience in the empathy and soft skills needed to effectively manage care matters
• Willingness to build Guardian relationships

Whats On Offer?

• Salary of £40k+, tailored to your experience level
• Support for ongoing career progression
• Genuine flexibility
