The successful Family Solicitor will be offered the chance to work with an excellent team of Family lawyers and will be given the opportunity of dealing with a wide spectrum of ultra high net worth finance family and matrimonial matters. The work itself will be varied but will have a strong focus on advice relating to high-net worth individuals. Our client is seeking someone with good business development skills as some of the equity partners are retiring and are having to transfer clients. Your will also act as head of department and manage a number of partners / solicitors. You should also have a book of contacts / clients to bring to the firm too.
