Family Solicitor
Founded in 1981, the firm was originally specialising in criminal and family law, but quickly grew to cover other areas such as conveyancing and wills & probate.
They believe that people should always have access to the best legal advice and representation possible, regardless of circumstances. Therefore, they always give the best service while striving to be affordable and competitive.
They are seeking a Family Solicitor with around 1-5 years’ experience. The role will entail dealing with a full and mixed caseload of predominantly private family matters, with the potential for a small number of legal aid matters.
Job Summary:
Candidates will deal with all matters generally from beginning through to completion and cover the following areas:
- Family
- Divorce
- Children disputes
- Family Financial Property Arrangements
