The role focuses solely on privately funded family matters, often involving more complex cases, the work is varied and challenging, typically covering financial remedy and children issues.
While the role is ideally fully office-based due to the part-time nature, there is flexibility for the occasional work-from-home day, whether thats to catch up on work or just to accommodate everyday life.
Theres also a genuine opportunity for someone to develop the family department further, building up more work over time if desired, but equally, it would suit someone who simply wants to handle quality cases and maintain a balanced working week.
The firm offers:
- 26 days holiday (FTE) + bank holidays
- Additional time off over the Christmas period
- A friendly and professional team environment
- Flexibility where it counts
- A loyal client base and strong referral network
This firm benefits from an excellent reputation, with much of its work coming from client recommendations and repeat business.
The team is known for offering a full range of legal services to private and professional clients, delivered with a focus on quality, approachability and client care.
This is a great opportunity for a confident family solicitor looking for a more flexible role, without compromising on the quality of work or client relationships.
