Working pattern: Full-time, office-based initially, with hybrid working available after six months
We are working with a friendly and well-established West London law firm that is seeking a Senior Private Client Solicitor as part of a carefully planned succession strategy.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced lawyer to take over an established private client practice from a Partner who intends to retire within the next 12 months. You will work closely with the Partner during a structured handover period, giving you the opportunity to build strong relationships with existing clients and become an important part of the firm’s future.
The position is initially offered on a salaried basis, with a genuine opportunity to progress to Partnership.
The role
You will manage a broad private client caseload, including:
- Wills and estate planning
- Probate and estate administration
- Trusts
- Lasting Powers of Attorney
- General advice to individuals and families
You will also have the support of your own paralegal, who will work alongside you and develop under your supervision.
About you
The firm is looking for someone who:
- Is a qualified solicitor with at least five years’ private client experience
- Can confidently manage a varied caseload with minimal supervision
- Has a strong track record as a fee earner
- Provides a personable, empathetic and commercially minded service
- Is comfortable building lasting relationships with clients and professional contacts
- Is interested in playing a long-term role in the growth of the department
The firm is open-minded about your current type or size of practice. The priority is finding a capable private client lawyer who will fit well within its friendly and collaborative culture.
Why consider this opportunity?
- Salary of £60,000–£70,000, with flexibility for the right candidate
- An established caseload and structured handover from a retiring Partner
- A genuine succession opportunity and potential route to Partnership
- Support from a dedicated paralegal
- A welcoming firm with a strong record of retaining its people
