Job description

A respected and expanding legal team is seeking an experienced Family Law Solicitor with 3+ years PQE or equivalent, to join their practice.

This role is ideal for someone with a passion for advocacy and a desire to make a difference in both privately funded and Legal Aid cases.

On offer is a competitive salary package, hybrid working options after probation, exposure to a diverse and rewarding caseload across Private and Legal Aid work, and a supportive and collaborative working environment with career development opportunities and support for further qualifications.

The successful Family Solicitor will:

- Advise on all areas of family law, including divorce, children matters, financial disputes, and domestic abuse
- Represent clients in court, including final hearings and contested proceedings
- Handle a mixed caseload of Private and Legal Aid clients
- Ensure compliance with Legal Aid Agency (LAA) processes and maintain high standards of service
- Provide clear, accessible advice to clients, supporting them through challenging times

The ideal candidate will have:

- 3+ years PQE in family law
- Strong advocacy experience
- Experience with Legal Aid funding and applications
- Excellent communication skills and ability to manage sensitive matters

Legal Aid Family Supervisor status is a plus, and Panel membership or accreditation (e.g., Resolution, Law Society) is desirable, but not essential.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious solicitor to build their career in a firm that values expertise, teamwork, and client care.
