Job description

My client is looking for a Contentious Probate Solicitor, Legal Executive or Fee Earner with 2+ years PQE to join their team on a fully remote basis.


My client's award-winning firm stands apart from other practices; they are incredibly entrepreneurial, creative and offer great flexibility to their staff. They have a family-friendly feel throughout the practice, invest heavily in their staff and due to continued growth, they can offer strong prospects.


They have acquired several businesses over recent years which have enabled them to become one of the UK's largest probate providers. Due to this unparalleled growth, they are able to provide a fast-track route for fee-earners to become Salaried Directors within three years, just by hitting your target in 3 non-consecutive years.


Their approach to business and their clients has put them ahead of competitors. They have core values that define who they are, how they operate and the services they offer. Their success is down to their people and the strong relationships they have built with their clients.


The Team

Due to expansion, they are recruiting for a Contentious Trusts & Probate Solicitor to join the department.


Everyone works in a cohesive environment but with the autonomy to run and develop their caseload and build client relationships. Many lawyers within the team are STEP members, but everyone shares their expertise, knowledge and experience to support one another.


The Role

You will take the opportunity to work on a caseload that covers all aspects of contentious private client litigation.


There is plenty of opportunity to grow and develop the work, and you will be encouraged and given the independence to build relationships with other departments and external referrers.


You will also be given the option to be actively involved with supporting and mentoring junior members of the department.
